Minis are athletes in school years 3, 4 and 5 as of 1st March, but who will go up to years 4, 5 and 6 in September (at start of the new school term). The focus is on fitness, fun, with an introduction to athletic technique – and encouraging everybody to become involved in athletics. Minis train once a week on a Sunday morning, during school term time. There are two forty-minute sessions available, 9.30am-10.10am and 10.20am-11am.
