Sevenoaks School — track in summer, gym in winter

Summer
Track & Knole

Outside on the track, sessions include sprints, jumps, throws and middle distance running, with some sessions taking us into Knole Park.

Winter
Indoors

When the evenings are dark, training moves into the gym for circuit training, fitness and athletics skills.

Coaches

Junior sessions are led by qualified coaches, with support from parent helpers.

Extra pairs of hands are always welcome, particularly with our younger athletes. If you would like to help at sessions or are interested in getting involved with coaching, speak to our Head Coach, Darrell Smith.

What we compete in

There are opportunities for juniors to compete throughout the year.

Under 11s mainly take part in Sportshall Athletics, while older juniors can compete in cross country and track and field.

The Kent Young Athletes League provides a full programme of track and field competition for under 13 and under 15 athletes. There are also opportunities to take part in county championships, schools competitions and other events as athletes progress.

A junior presentation is held each year, recognising achievements across the junior section with medals and certificates at every level.

What to wear and bring

No specialist kit is needed for training. Wear comfortable sports clothing and trainers suitable for athletics, and bring a drink and a warm layer for the end of the session.

There is no need to buy spikes when you first start.

Junior members receive a blue Sevenoaks AC T shirt which can be worn for training and Sportshall Athletics.
