Sportshall ’21/’22

We’ve got the Sportshall season starting in October.  It’s an indoor athletics with sprints, jumps and throws for juniors aged between 8 and 14.

Thanks for all for your support and involvement in the 2019/’20 season.  It was a fantastic to see so many of the junior Harriers enjoying the competitions.

Fixtures

We’re planning to build on last season’s success and would love to see as many Harriers as possible.  Please pop the following fixture dates in your diary.

  • Sunday 24th Oct.  Bicester – Bicester Sports Centre 
  • Sunday 21st Nov.  Kidlington Sports Centre
  • Sunday 16th Jan.  Wantage – KA’s West Site Sportshall
  • Sunday 20th Feb.  Witney – Windrush Leisure Centre
  • Sunday 13th Mar.  Bicester – Bicester Sports Centre 

The events can be noisy with limited viewing.  With an eye on Covid safety, we’d recommend lift sharing with other parents or alternatively drop the juniors off with their friends and collect at the end.

For parents keen to stay, we’d welcome a couple of parent/helpers to help with supervising the team during the competition.

Bicester Fixture

It will be at the  Bicester Leisure Centre, Queens Avenue, Bicester, OX26 2NR.  Kick off is around 1.15pm, and it’s recommend you arrive a little early for parking, etc.

Sportshall is fun for the juniors, but it can be noisy for the parents and spectators.  We’d recommend either bringing your swimmers and taking advantage of the pool, of dropping them off and doing a bit of shopping.

The list of events & running order can be found here

Training

We have now moved juniors training to 7.00pm – 8.00pm at KA’s West site Sportshall for the Autumn/Winter. Tom will continue doing his endurance training session in parallel for those juniors who prefer cross-country. 

Please let us know that you’d like to be on the Sportshall team, or have any questions:
