MADJA

SUMMER TRAINING – TRACK AND FIELD

Summer training will recommence in March. In the meantime the club offers a range of winter training and cross country fixtures.

Summer training takes place at Marlborough College Track on Sunday mornings and Wednesday evenings.

Sunday training is open to everyone interested in keeping fit or competing. Wednesday evening sessions (when light permits) are open to U13 and older athletes who are competing during the season. U9’s and U11’s are encouraged to keep active through a variety of sports and activities enabling children to develop strength, flexibility, stamina and agility and limit the risk of injury. Older children will train specifically for their events with the support of coaches while continuing with a wide variety of disciplines recognising that young people’s bodies change and so too does natural ability at an event.

MADJA expects all U13’s and older athletes to be willing to compete if selected. Please let your coach know if you are unwilling or unable to compete.

MADJA takes part in two major leagues in the SouthWest - the Wessex League and the Wiltshire Inter-Club Super 8. The Wessex League fixtures take place on four Sundays and the Super 8 matches take place on four Wednesday evenings during the season.
