Membership - Junior Age Groups

New members are welcome in all age groups at Marlborough Athletics. The best way to find out about the club is to come along either during the summer on a Sunday morning or Wednesday evening for track and field events. Young athletes (U9/11) will be partnered with either someone they know or introduced to another athlete within their age group. During the winter we have training at the track on a Sunday morning and circuits at Marlborough Leisure Centre on a Wednesday evening, circuits do come with an additional cost. Hopefully one of the coaching team will be able to answer any questions you may have. Every junior member (U20 and below) is entitled to 2 taster sessions before committing to the club. Our membership year runs from April 1st to March 31st.
