NEWPORT HARRIERS ATHLETIC CLUB
THE CLUB FOR EVERYONE
Newport Harriers Athletic Club was established in 1896; making it South Wales’s oldest athletics club. The club has a rich history of competing at road and cross country and running; and track and field athletics involving the sprinting, jumping and throwing events and middle distance running.
We have training groups for all ages and support all age competitions at local, regional, national and international level.
We are a very diverse and welcoming club for athletes of all abilities and backgrounds.
With younger children we aim to develop strong and healthy all round athletes before training them to compete in specific events.
Training nights at the stadium are on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday; although some training groups will organise separate sessions at locations away from the track at other times.
We are proud to have helped the development of world class Olympic medallists such as Christian Malcolm and Jamie Baulch; and world record holder for the marathon, Steve Jones.
We have a great history of national and international athlete representation, and a great breadth of acclaimed coaches.
In more recent months, we have been recognised for our provision of opportunities for disabled people in Wales.
