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 junior athletics (age 5 to 7)

This fun course will involve teaching children the basic concept of agility, balance and co-ordination developing into the disciplines of running, jumping and throwing.

Two-day athletics camp (ages 8 to 12)

Our training camp offers professional athletics performance coaching, delivered by experienced instructors and tailored to your child’s age. Children learn to improve their skills in sprints/block starts, long jump, high jump, hurdles and endurance running. Children will also learn exercises to help improve their fitness and sharpen their skills.
