Junior Striders

Our junior section is for children of all abilities aged from 9 to 17 years.

Sessions are led by UK Athletics-trained coaches and supported by DBS-checked helpers to provide fun and varied training using the whole-body training concept of ‘Run, Jump, Throw’ endorsed by the UKA Athletics 365 programme.

We have a selection of equipment, including safety javelins, shot puts and discuses, and use a mixture of games, relays and timed events, with an emphasis on Juniors tracking and advancing their 'personal bests'. We also support Duke of Edinburgh awards, and have a scheme to help young athletes try out coaching.

Where: Borderville Sports Centre, Ryhall Road (November to Easter) and Copthill School fields, Uffington (Easter to July)
When: Tuesdays 6pm-6.45pm during school term time
Cost: £20 per year, renewing on April 1
