We have a wide range of coaches and sessions to suit most needs, and we welcome new members.

If you or your child is interested in becoming a member of our athletics club, please contact via the Contact Us link.

If your child is in School Year 4 or 5, and interested in athletics, they may be interested in joining the Leeds Lions. This is a dedicated session with a qualified athletics coach which is aimed at children between 8 and 10 years old.

2 x ‘taster sessions’ (Trial Period)

For all new athletes we offer 2 ‘taster sessions’ (or trial period) to ensure the club is right for you before you commit to joining.

For Wheelchair athletes the first taster session is free of charge to establish if the equipment is compatible.

The 2 taster sessions cost £5 and apply to all new athletes both junior & senior who are interested in joining the club.

If after these sessions you would like to continue, you will need to join as a Leeds City Athletic Club member.  This membership is renewed annually. Training fees are paid separately in addition to membership.
