Under 11's Page

The under 11's group trains at Huntington stadium on monday evenings from 7pm until 8pm. The group is currently full to capacity, so anyone interested in joining should contact us via the link above and ask to be put on the waiting list. However the waiting list is not currently very long and hopefully new members should not have to wait more than a month or 2 normally.

Training Guidelines: During the winter make sure that you have plenty of warm gear to put on. You should NOT be training in shorts and t-shirt ! Make sure you have a warm top to put on at the end of training to stop you getting cold. Bring a bottle of water to drink. At regular intervals throughout training the coaches will recommend you drink a mouthful of water.

Sweatshop (at Next Gen sports club, Hull Road) inform us that they have in stock Ron Hill athletic clothing for juniors and Nike Air Pegasus junior training shoes. Don't forget that Sweatshop offer a discount to club members on presentation of your membership card.

Unfortunately there is not much competition available for the under 11's, though the club arranges a number of events:
Cross country race in conjunction with the Christmas/New Year Relay
Fun runs in conjunction with the Wheldrake 10k (June) and Millennium Bridge Races (August)
Quadrathlon (4 events) track & field event in the Summer.
Various events at the club open track & field meeting in September.

For those interested in track and field the West Yorkshire League has events for 11's during the Summer months, while for the mud larks the West Yorkshire League has 4 events between October and December.

Forthcoming Events

The club runs the Ingrams Solicitors Summer Athletics League from Huntington stadium, which has events for under 11's. These events are on weekends. The West Yorkshire League also has events for under 11's, though this will involved a bit more travelling. The West Yorshire League matches are usually on a weekday evening. For more information on both, please use the drop down menu's at the top of the page.
