A management game, not an arcade game

Most athletics games are arcade button-mashers. Athlenet is the opposite: a true management (manager) game. You don't play the events by hand — you build a team, make the decisions, and the engine simulates performances realistically, event by event, season after season.

The track & field answer to Football Manager

If you love Football Manager, Championship Manager or Maxithlon, you're in the right place. Athlenet takes what makes those games addictive — recruitment, training, tactics, long-term progression — and applies it to athletics instead of football. All free, on any device.

Every athletics discipline

Sprints, middle and long distance, hurdles, jumps, throws, race walking and even the decathlon: every athlete has a specialty, a potential and a career curve. It's up to you to find the talent and grow it.
