Athletics Lessons and Courses

Want to find an out of school activity to challenge and help you develop in athletics? Here at Crystal Palace, we have over 300 young athletes taking part every week on our progressive programme, a number of which go on to represent local clubs at junior and senior levels, with approximately 25 going on to regional and national honours.

We have a range of athletics courses for children between the ages of 3-15 regardless of their ability. Athletics provides a great opportunity for children to try a new sport, make friends and have fun, all in the safe hands of our highly qualified staff.
