Sprints and Hurdles
Sprints & Hurdles
We have a number of training groups for all age groups and abilities across the club, supported by 6 coaches. We have the group for you! Each group has a slightly different emphasis and we will try and make sure all athletes are in a group that matches their wishes and needs, though ultimately this is an athlete/coach decision as to which group is best.
​
You can contact any of these coaching groups though our site contact form here.
