YOUNG QUAD KIDS COURSE

Inspiring the Next Generation of Athletes

U10’s – U14’s: school year 3 – 8

This course is essentially for non-members of DILI Academy, helping young athletes through their first steps in their athletics journey. We run series of rolling fundamental courses for quad kids, aged 7 to 13 years of age.
– Children must be 7 years of age on the day of our program.

We introduce young athletes to learn correct technical principles of sprinting, throwing, and jumping. While receiving support from UKA licences athletic coaches, we are dedicated to providing a supportive and inclusive environment where all quad kids can thrive.

On this course, quad kid athletes dress to represent DILI Academy, club colours of Red, White and black, foster our team spirit and compete in entry level competitions, in a NON PRESSURED, child friendly atmosphere, within groups of their own age band.

Sessions typically end with my children laughing and smiling, shouting ‘thank you’ to the coaches. I can see my children really developed in confidence, both with their physical and social skills”. – Peter
