The younger age groups the focus is on having fun while gradually learning all the movement skills for all the athletics events , while also building basic fitness.
For competition athletes in the winter months our focus in training sessions will be on general pre-season preparation for Track & Field Athletics building towards the indoor season , along with the specific Cross Country preparation for our long distance crew as the Cross Country season moves through winter to spring. In the Spring & Summer months we will add some technical sessions for specific events into the outdoor Track & Field sessions as the season evolves.
Our social running group for adults who do not wish to compete but would like to build fitness and enjoy the benefits of running meet at the track twice per week on Tuesdays & Fridays.
Our focus with the middle teenage group, older teen and senior groups is to focus on competition preparation and is event specific. There is collective training where we cover S & C and also there are specific technical sessions where the focus will be on smaller group sizes and coaching attention for competition athletes. We have a Road Endurance adult group who train early on Saturday mornings.
All of our coaches are volunteers and training sessions depend on coach availability. We have to limit the numbers in each training group to ensure that every athlete is benefitting while also ensuring the safety and enjoyment for coaches and athletes alike.
