Our junior club
Big energy. Bright futures.
Fun, structured athletics coaching for young people — building movement skills, confidence and a love of sport.
Junior athletics
Progress at
your own pace.
Our junior section welcomes athletes of all abilities from age seven. Sessions develop the foundations of running, jumping and throwing before progressing towards event-specific training.
Young athletes can simply enjoy being active or go on to compete for the club. Our juniors take part in cross country, track and field, Sportshall, fell and mountain running.
