Summer Athletics Camp 2025 (Ages 5-12)
Two weeks of morning athletics sessions will be available at Craigswood Sports Centre, from 10.00 am to 12.00 pm, during the summer holidays.
What is it?
Our exciting holiday camp will give young athletes the chance to experience a week of athletics training. Each day is filled with fun games, technique sessions and competition.
Who is it for?
Primary school children aged 5 to 12 who want to have fun, participate, make friends and learn new and exciting skills. The sessions will be tailored to suit children of all skill levels from beginners to those who have already taken part in athletics. Athletes will be in an appropriate group for their age and stage of development.
What is the minimum age?
We welcome all children, from age 5 upwards, who have already attended primary school. We don't offer any pre-school sessions.
When is it?
Monday to Friday, 10.00 am - 12.00 pm.
Where is it?
All sessions take place at the outdoor athletics track at Xcite Craigswood Sports Centre, Livingston.
The track is accessed via a gate in the rear car park. You don't need to enter the sports centre building.
Where to meet?
Coaches will meet athletes at the athletics pavilion.
Registration is from 9.55 am.
After the session has finished, the coaches will take athletes back to the pavilion, where they should be picked up.
What do I need to bring?
Children train outside, on the athletics track, so should come prepared with appropriate clothing: trainers, shorts, tracksuit bottoms, t-shirt and a jumper.
A waterproof jacket will also be needed for wet weather.
Please also bring a small healthy snack and a drink. Please ensure your name is on your water bottle, as a few always get left!
