Coaching > Summer Track & Field

Welcome to a brand-new season of fun, fitness, and friendship!
We’re thrilled to see so many athletes, new and returning – getting ready to hit the track. Training is the heart of what we do at Knox, and our amazing team of coaches can’t wait to help you learn, grow and enjoy every moment this season.

Special Coaching for New Events

At the start of each season, we run special clinics to introduce new skills:

  • U11 athletes (and any older athletes who’d like a refresher) can join coaching for Javelin, Block Starts, Hurdles, High Jump & Triple Jump.
  • These sessions are a fantastic way to build confidence in new events and set up strong foundations for the season ahead.

Keep an eye out for these dates early in the season!
