ABOUT OUR JUNIOR DIVISION

Our Junior Division caters for competitive young runners who are willing to improve their fitness and ability. From beginners through to elite competitors we aim to support all members to achieve their individual goals.

We compete at all interclub races and set a high standard in club representation. Our junior members, at all levels, are encouraged to compete at these interclubs events and also the Wellington Cross Country and Road Championship events. This gives them race experience where they are able to practise learned racing strategies.

Our club prides itself in the high level of comradeship our young runners show towards each other, many great friendships have been made.

Our Junior Division is managed and coached by Darryl Robinson with the assistance of David Hood, Kurt Jacques and Maria Allen( Junior website).

Darryl has many years experience and provides advice on levels of fitness, race planning and preparation, nutrition and setting goals. He coaches the primary, intermediate and college runners through their school, inter-school, inter-provincial, through to National and international competitions.

The Trentham United Harrier Club Season for 2013 begins on 6th April through to 21st September 2013 for the Juniors. Finishing with prizegiving

Darryl coaches the majority of the Junior Division all year round and provides an extra Tuesday training to do this. Commitment to the club and to the group is an expectation. Many of this groups runners are also competitive in athletics so rely on Darryl’s expertise and experience on the track to coach them through the summer athletic season for school, regional, national and international competitions. Please talk to Darryl if you are interested in being part of Tuesday’s group as well.

This group is a wonderful, dynamic, fun and competitive bunch of young runners who push their limits above their own expectations, gaining greater fitness, strength, speed and endurance for competition, other sport and personal gain.
