Learn to run, jump and throw with one of the best clubs in the country!

Subject to getting enough volunteers to commence our new youngest age group, Craughwell AC will be starting its youngest training group on Thursdays at 5.30pm for children born in 2020, commencing on Thursday 17^th September.

We will need help from parents on a rota basis to help with supervision of the session – as the children are so young. Existing coaches will help with teaching the athletics drills and events but after a number of weeks parents/new coaches will need to be taking on some of this work.

If you wish to enrol your child in the group, please whatsapp Mike Tobin at 087 6591879 and please also let Mike know if you will help on a rota basis. We can only start the group if we get enough help.

The more help a group has, the more successful that group becomes as it is possible to split it into smaller subgroups when learning the events.

And the best time for parents to get involved and learn the events is when the athletes are very young, so don’t let lack of knowledge stop you helping. Most coaches start with no knowledge and learn as their group progresses. The club will provide training via more experienced coaches and training courses.
