Summer Camps
The 2022 Irish Life Health Athletics Summer Camps are back!
Registration has now begun for the 2022 Irish Life Health Athletics Summer Camps, which provide boys and girls aged *6-12yrs with the chance to be active and have fun trying out the three main athletics disciplines of running, jumping and throwing!
Children will get the opportunity to try activities from sprinting, javelin, hurdles, shot putt, long jump, walk and relays. This range of activities helps children to develop the fundamental movement skills of agility, balance and co-ordination. There is the added benefit that these skills also form an ideal base for all other sporting activity.
The camps have proven to be a great way for clubs to not only entertain their current juveniles but also as a means to attract new members to the club. All participants are treated to a weeklong schedule of run, jump, and throw activities and are given a chance to try out disciplines that they may not have experienced before. Participants receive a Water bottle, Technical T-Shirt, Bag and more!
