Junior Athletes

Droitwich Athletics Club has an extremely friendly youth section welcoming all young, budding athletes from ages 6 to 18. We aim to introduce athletics to young people in Droitwich providing gradual progression in their running, jumping and throwing skills.

 

Competitions

In the Spring/Summer months we participate in the Heart of England Athletics league (track and field). During the Autumn/Winter months we take part in the Gloucester Cross Country league and UK Athletics Sports Hall competitions. 

Training

We meet on Tuesday evenings at the High School.

If it's light outside we all train on the athletics track from 6:30pm to 7:30pm.

Once it starts getting dark training for our younger athletes transfers into the Sports Hall.

Note: Older children will continue to train on the track.

​

Each session costs just £2!

Our coaches hold UK athletics coaching qualifications and are fully DBS (formerly CRB) checked.

​

The wellbeing of the children in our club is important to us.

We have a fully trained safeguarding officer who can be contacted on juniors@droitwichac.co.uk
