The Club continues to meet throughout the school holidays on Mondays and Wednesdays from 7pm to 8pm at Seedhill. New members are welcome on either night from age 8 upwards.
Coaches and club officials are going to be absent at various times but we will continue to cater for everyone even if some squads are temporarily run together.
Just a reminder that athletes aged 8 to 10 years should be in the young athlete group and those aged 10/11 to 13 years should be in the intermediate squad. Exceptions to this are only for existing athletes known to the coaches and by specific agreement with a coach that includes making sure that they are aware how old the athlete is.
This approach is in line with England Athletics guidelines and is aimed at the long term retention and success of young athletes. Our coaches are all trained to develop young athletes in line with their actual age, training age and abilities. An early move to a specialist squad is often not in the young person’s interest.
