Welcome to everyone who has shown an interest in becoming
involved in the Leith Children's Athletic Club. The Leith
Club has been actively involved in senior athletics and cross
country running for many years and at times has had a children's
section running, depending on the availability of people to
organise this. We started the Children's Athletics section
up again in 2008 and are continuing with it in 2009-2010.
Fees
Non- competitive (Monday night sessions only) $30.00
Competitive (Monday nights and Saturday mornings at the Caledonian
Ground) $50.00
Cheques to be written out to Leith Harrier Club
Monday Night Sessions (Ended
now until summer season 2010/2011)
" Time: 5.30-6.30pm
" Depending on the number of children, the children will
be grouped and will rotate around several different athletic
activities each session - with the aim of covering all the
different activities over several weeks. The emphasis will
be on learning how to do each activity correctly and confidently.
" Parents will be rostered to help out with the training
sessions. The number of times parents will be asked to help
out will depend on the number of children who enrol.
" In the case of cancellations of a training session
due to inclement weather I will endeavour to contact those
with cell phone contact numbers by text message and also put
the cancellation over the radio station.
