WE HAVE A LONG WAITING LIST FOR MEMBERSHIP AND IT WILL BE SOME TIME BEFORE WE CAN INVITE ATHLETES TO THE CLUB.

 

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING GENERAL INFORMATION FIRST BEFORE CONTACTING US:

• Our coaches and other helpers are volunteers who give up their time freely and without payment. In return, we expect athletes to be committed to the club by training regularly and competing for the club. 

• Our training nights are Mondays and Wednesdays, and we expect athletes to train at least weekly throughout the year.

• Competitions are held at weekends and we expect athletes to be available to compete for our teams.

• If you are committed to other sports at weekends which affect your commitment to compete for us then please don't join our waiting list. 

​

Children in School Year 5 who have had their 10th birthday may register with the club and will join the waiting list when they join Year 6.

 

We do not accept registrations from children under 10.

​

Children in Year 6: THE YEAR 6 WAITING LIST IS CURRENTLY CLOSED

​

Children in School Years 7 & 8 will join a long waiting list and it may be several months, and often very much longer, before we can offer a three week trial place at the club to assess their effort and commitment.

 

Athletes in School Years 9 or above and Seniors:​ It may be very difficult to accommodate athletes or older beginners without recent experience.

​

We do not offer trials to assess athletes' ability or potential. 

​

We are not a road running club: Local running clubs will be able to better meet road runners' needs (e.g. Havering 90 Joggers, Harold Wood Runners).

​

While we still welcome enquiries from former/lapsed Havering AC members or established athletes from other clubs  we will only be able to offer places where we have vacancies in current coaching groups and where we have proof of current fitness and evidence of any recent competitions.

​​​

TO REGISTER PLEASE EMAIL: haveringac@virginmedia.com with the athlete's name, date of birth, parent contact details, school/college and event(s) they are interest in training for, along with details of any athletics competitive experience they have had in the past 12 months.

​

FOR ATHLETES AGED UNDER 18 WE CAN ONLY CORRESPOND WITH PARENTS/ CARERS, NOT ATHLETES, DUE TO SAFEGUARDING GUIDELINES
