The Junior Academy is tailored for young athletes, generally aged 8 to 14, though we welcome children outside this range depending on their ability and progress.
Training Schedule
The Academy meets on Monday and Thursday evenings for structured, pre-planned sessions. Although some sessions may be physically or technically challenging, we ensure that athletes only participate in activities appropriate to their age, strength, speed, agility, and skill level.
Our Training Groups
We organize our Junior Academy into three progressive groups to cater to different ages and skill levels:
Group 1: Fundamentals
- Monday and Thursday 5:30 p.m. – 6:30 p.m.
- Designed for our youngest athletes, starting from 8 years old. The focus is mastering the basics of running, jumping, and throwing. Progression to the next group depends on how quickly these core skills are developed.
Group 2: Fundamentals Plus
- Monday and Thursday 5:30 p.m. – 6:30 p.m.
- Ideal for athletes who have built foundational skills but are not yet ready for the Development Group.
Group 3: Development
- Monday and Thursday 6:30 p.m. – 7:30 p.m.
- Focused on athletes ready to engage in a wider variety of disciplines. This group emphasizes honing skills in running, jumping, and throwing.
Opportunities for Competition
We actively encourage Academy members to participate in school events and competitions on the athletics club circuit. Our coaching team regularly shares updates about upcoming events, providing athletes with opportunities to gain valuable competitive experience and further their development.
Benefits of Joining the Junior Academy
Participation in athletics offers both physical and psychological benefits for young people. It builds confidence, discipline, and teamwork while fostering a love for fitness and personal achievement.
