KuHAC Junior Academy

Within the Academy, athletes are placed into Fundamental and Development groups. We aim to introduce young people to the fundamental skills of athletics within a safe, friendly and fun environment. The fundamental skills have three categories: how to run, jump and throw.

The group mainly comprises athletes between 8 and 14 years old, however, this may vary depending upon the skill of the athlete or their progress in the sport.

Session are held on Monday and Thursday evenings from 5:15pm at Costello Stadium, Hull and athletes will take part in pre-planned sessions. Some sessions may be technically or physically challenging, however, only when athletes are deemed capable in age, strength, speed, agility & skill level.

Our coaches are England Athletics qualified, DBS checked (see Safeguarding & Child Welfare) and are friendly and enthusiastic.

Group members will be encouraged to take part in events at school or on the athletics club circuit calendar. Notification of these events are provided by our coaching group, on a regular basis so that competitive experience can be gained to ensure the continuous development of athletes.

We believe that young people will benefit both physically and psychologically from taking part in athletics. We encourage you to get in touch using the contact us page on this website, for further information relating to this group.
