Athletes can learn new skills and techniques while participating in structured training sessions.
For juniors aged 7 and above, a free introductory session is offered. These sessions are carefully structured by fully qualified coaches to provide the best possible experience for young athletes. The Academy also offers free taster sessions throughout the year to give athletes a chance to try out the training sessions before committing to a membership.
The senior section of the club welcomes athletes aged 16 and above and runs alongside the junior section. Training sessions for seniors take place on Saturdays at 9:30am and Mondays at 6:30pm. During the autumn and winter months, the group runs around the town, so athletes are required to wear hi-viz vests or clothing for their safety.
