This club was founded to provide full time training options for the serious track and field athlete. So the short answer is "yes". However, we understand that this is difficult for the younger athlete / athlete who plays multiple sports. That is why we have the year split up into different "seasons" allowing the athlete to join / sign up for what they are able to do.

The best place for a beginner (no matter the age or ability) is to start with a few private lessons, so that the athlete will be able to get one-on-one instruction. This is the best way for the athlete to learn as a beginner. If your child is between the ages of 5-12 and want to learn the sport with other kids their age, bring them to a youth practice to try things out!
