The Sprints Academy is for aspiring sprinters and developing athletes who want to participate in a fully committed track sprints training regime and competition season.
The Sprints Academy functions on a squad basis and offers a limited number of places within its squads annually. Enrolment is generally in September which complements the track and field season start and end dates. However, don’t let that put you off as we understand that athletes will have different start date requirements.
Our squad sizes are kept small to ensure an optimal learning environment and to ensure a focus on individual requirements.
There are three Sprints Academy Squad Levels:
- Bronze: For those committed to training and competing.
- Silver: For those medalling at an age group national level.
- Gold: For those participating at national representation level.
Squad levels and individual requirements will dictate the frequency, density and modalities of the programme. The nature of athletics and sprinting is that athletes will be involved in year round training, with coach and athlete holidays being the only exception.
Out of respect for our fellow coaching professionals, we always ask that if you are working with a coach, please consult them before contacting us.
If you are keen for your child or as an athlete to be involved in the Sprints Academy please drop us an email and we will provide you with further information.
