This is for a group of children aged 6+ who enjoy sports and have an interest in running. The group will incorporate games, skills and running technique.
Kids Athletics is all about fun! I got introduced to running from a very young age. The passion I experienced, created a desire inside of me to keep on pursuing the sport. Years later, I was running competitively in the National Championships, almost always adding a podium finish to my season. Still ...I keep on running, because the love for the sport has yet not come to an end. This passion I hav
e inside of me is what I would like to share with other children out there. I wish they can experience just a little bit of what I experienced as a youngster. I have therefore started the running group, Eagle Runners. It will incorporate some of the IAAF Kids Athletics guidelines (which is renown for the good results it has shown worldwide). Children get the opportunity to develop their motor skills, speed, agility, balance, endurance and confidence! They will not only improve in their running performances, but in their overall sports they practice. The discipline they acquire will directly reflect in their daily lifestyles. Therefore Eagle Runners introduce children to the sport of athletics in a fun and interactive way. We will be playing plenty of games, doing some running drills, some focus on technique and slowly but surely start building the engine (endurance). My program will focus mostly on running (sprints, endurance) however it will incorporate some additional skills for jumping, throwing etc. Group 1 (baby Eagles) is all about fun and games. We will introduce the kids to various techniques, skills and drills. Group 2: Here we will build on the foundation from group 1 and incorporate some more specific types of training (i.e intervals, speed drills, hill repeats etc). If you are still not sure what it's all about, watch this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1f_vpla_87E
