Run, Jump, Throw

  • We are not able to offer the Run, Jump, Throw program at this time as there are track surface renovations underway and the completion dates are unknown. Once the track is ready and if the coaches are still available, we will look at resuming this program. Earliest expected time would be May 2025. Updates, when available, will be posted on this page.

Run, Jump, Throw is an 8 week recreation program that introduces children ages 6-12 to  running, jumping and throwing events from the sport of track and field. In addition to learning the correct way to run, jump, and throw participants will learn specific drills to improve speed, rhythm, strength and balance; skills which are transferable to other sports and activities. Training sessions will be held at the 200m indoor track located in the David Braley Athletic Centre. This program is delivered in partnership with Val Sarjeant and Stoney Creek Athletics, a registered member of the Minor Track Association and Athletics Ontario.
