Objectives

Our aim is to promote sport within the context of athletics fom eight years of age onwards. We offer participation to all members in Track & Field, Cross Country and Road Running actively encouraging and stimulating the understanding of the sport.

On club nights we offer safe participation in fully supervised groups set in a friendly and happy environment.

The club enjoys considerable success and encourages all athletes to achieve their full potential particulary in competition whilst wearing the club's colours with pride.

The aim with the U/11 athletes is to create a Dragon Sports environment,learning events in a "Fun Manner"whilst older athletes are encouraged to understand more specifics about their events.

Although a serious athletic club where competition is concerned the social aspect of the club is important to us and organised social events away from athletics creating a good balance and a happy family atmosphere would be innermost in our intentions.

There is constant examination of our coaching structure and organisation with a view to appropiately supporting the athletes short and long term needs and providing a systematic way of supporting them to progress from grassroots participation to the International arena.Underpinning this the success of our club must be the continual development of all our coaches. In short a happy environment with quality coaching leads to success.
