Derbyshire Athletics

Sports Hall Athletics

is an indoor form of track and field for children between the ages of 4 and 16.  It was created by the late George Bunner MBE, to provide a safe and warm environment for young athletes to train during the cold and dark winter months.

The Sports Hall Programme

provides a highly enjoyable way for young people to try running, jumping and throwing activities as their first steps into athletics. It gives children their first taste of fun and excitement of track and field events in a safe environment.

Derbyshire’s Involvement

Derbyshire holds six Sports Hall competitions a year and takes a team to the regional and national finals.

Venue: Queens Park Sports Centre
