Learn the skills. Build confidence. Have fun!

Moving into the Under 11 age group is an exciting milestone, with athletes able to compete in Javelin for the first time.

This six-week introductory course will help athletes learn the basic rules and fundamentals of Javelin in a fun, safe and supportive environment before the new season begins. Athletes will learn how to handle and throw the javelin safely, progressively develop their technique, build confidence and prepare to enjoy their first Javelin competitions.

The course is designed primarily for athletes moving into the Under 11 age group this season. Athletes in older age groups who are new to Javelin are also welcome.
