Sessions are lead by qualified UK Athletics coaches who hold valid DBS certificates. Sessions will be organised locally to Swadlincote on Tuesday evenings from 6:30-7:30pm for 12-17 year olds.
We have a maximum of 24 attending memberships available to ensure athlete to coach ratios are in line with guidelines. Fee structure can be seen in the table below and Runs 1st April – 31st March. Payment 1 is made when your application is successful, subsequent payments are made every 3 months. If you join part way through the membership year, you won’t need to pay all 4 installments. For example, joining halfway through the year would mean payment 1 and 2 are due only.
| Type | Annual Fee | Payment 1 | Payment 2 | Payment 3 | Payment 4 |
| Competing | £80 | £32 | £16 | £16 | £16 |
| Non-Competing | £64 | £16 | £16 | £16 | £16 |
| Competing “non-attendance” | £32 | £32 | £0 | £0 | £0 |
Non-attending membership gives competitive status to the athlete but does not allow attendance to club training sessions.

Should no spaces be available at the time of application, we will offer your child a place on our waiting list and inform you once a space becomes available. The waiting list will be formed based on the date of receipt of your membership form.
The main focus of training will be aerobic endurance for long term athlete development whilst also working to improve speed, running form, and economy.
