Great news! Following the lifting of restrictions on outdoor training, juveniles and Little Athletics will return on Friday 30th April at 6.30pm in The Mall. Training for both groups will be outdoors on the Astro pitch. Following the long break, our coaches look forward to returning and seeing our young members back out enjoying their athletics and having fun.
Training sessions will be structured in accordance with Athletics Ireland guidelines. Each child will be allocated to a group of at most 15 members of similar age.
- Little Athletics is for children aged 6-9 and involves the coaching of the fundamentals of athletics.
- Juvenile Athletics, for older members, involves a mix of sprints, jumps, throws and middle-distance activities.
Expression of Interest – Now Closed
As of 25th April, we have reached our limits with regard to the number of children we can provide training for. As such we are currently closed for new juveniles and Little Athletics.
Registration
All children attending training must be registered for 2021. The membership fee is €25 per child. Returning members from last year can renew using the link below.

Once the renewal or new registration process is complete, you will receive a confirmation email from Athletics Ireland. Parents who processed membership renewal or new registration already in 2021, on behalf of their child, are asked to check that they have received the email and/or that payment has appeared on their bank account. We have seen some examples of incomplete applications on the registration portal.
