Athletics holiday courses
Ready, set go! Our fun athletics holiday courses teach children the basic concepts of running, jumping and throwing.
The indoor and outdoor athletics tracks at Chelmsford Sport and Athletics Centre (CSAC) offer a fantastic range of athletics courses during the school holidays.
Two-day multi-skills athletics (age 5 to 7)
Our multi-skills athletics sessions cover the six fundamentals of athletics training: strength, power, coordination, flexibility, balance and agility.
Children also learn the key skills needed in running (sprints, sprint starts, hurdles, relays, endurance running) jumping (long jump, triple jump, high jump) and throwing (shot put, javelin, discus). Our fully qualified instructor will help children improve their athletics skills in these fun sessions.
Workshops (age 8 to 14)
Our intensive three-hour workshops focus on one of the three disciplines in either running, jumping or throwing and will teach children the core skills of each discipline.
