Just to clarify that club training sessions now have to cease due to the national lockdown.

Unfortunately, due to the latest national lockdown, all training has been suspended until further notice.
We will of course let you know as soon as possible when we can resume training sessions.
In the meantime, keep running (mums and dads get out there with your kids!)

Sport England and England Athletics have eased the measures placed on U18 sport meaning that u18 (plus parents/guardians of course) are now allowed to travel to areas for competition regardless of tiers.
In such case, I wanted to advise you of an opportunity to race at Prestwold Hall on Sunday 13th December. Initially this event was offered only to Leicestershire competitors however now that the restrictions are eased the event is opened up to all.
Categories are u11/13/15/17. There will also be races throughout the day for adults.
Rest assured that the event is fully Covid secure. For those who were there for the school’s event on the 31st October you will be pleased to hear that we are using a different course. We will however still be using the now infamous multiple start system!
For possibly the last opportunity to race this year click the following link!
