the friendly running club
At 6:30pm-8.00pm every Wednesday at Hardenhuish School Sports Centre for ages 11 to 17 years.
Our mission is to hold structured weekly training sessions in a fun environment with each participant working towards realistic goals. We aim to cater for a range of abilities though as a guideline participants should be capable of 1 minute jogging/1 minute walking. All sessions will be led by coaches qualified to England Athletics Level 2 or above.
One of our medium term aims for those participants who express an interest is to organise competitive cross-county events with other like minded clubs within the County. In time we hope to represent Chippenham Harriers at County and potentially District events.
The Club is committed to duty of care and a Child Protection Policy is in place and maintained by our Health & Safety officer. A first aider trained to the St Johns standard will be in attendance at each session.
In addition to qualified coaches we also employ volunteer helpers all of whom have undergone a check by the Criminal Records Bureau (CRB).
Membership is £30.00 renewable on 1st May each year, a subscription of £2.00 is also payable for each attended session. Note that membership payment is not due until the third attended session thereby enabling a participant to try before committing.
Download a registration form. Please bring the completed form with you on the first night together with your first £2.00 subs payment. (Note for insurance purposes all participants must be registered from the outset regardless of whether or not they decide to become members)
Everyone involved with Chippenham Harriers Youth is requested to adhere to a Code of Conduct:
