Join Our Team – Make a Difference!

A great club needs great people, and we’d love your help! 🌟

As we gear up for our spring/summer athletics programme, we’re looking for parent helpers to support our Thursday track nights. Last year, we had over 100 young Harriers training, and our coaches would really appreciate extra hands to help with:

✅ Organising groups
✅ Marshalling activities
✅ Encouraging positive behaviour

We’re also on the lookout for additional coaches to assist with senior training.

If you’re interested, please reach out or come have a chat—we’d love to have you on board! 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️💙

Regards
