We welcome you to join the club, from people wanting to get into running and athletics, to new runners in the area wanting to improve their technique, or run in a social group.
New Members
New Senior members are recommended to join us for up to three training sessions and give it a go as a trial period. Through this you will find out more about the coaching and training that we offer, as well as the competition and social opportunities. If you would like to come along, please contact us and we can make sure you’re in the right place and run group.
New Junior members can attend up to three training sessions and attend an induction by a coach before they can join. We operate a waiting list as coaching places are limited.
