About Us
About Hoad Hill Harriers
Established in 1987, we are based at Glaxo Sports and Leisure Centre where we use the clubhouse facilities and field.
We are Affiliated to England Athletics and the Mid Lancs Cross Country League, allowing club teams to participate in various local and county fixtures. Our membership has now grown to over 140 regular seniors, of whom half are social runners, whilst the others are competitive runners, racing regularly. We welcome all ages (over18) and abilities, and can tailor runs and training sessions to suit you.
We hold several, well attended social events and runs during the year as well as hosting our own popular 1-mile race/team relay race, a September 5k, a summer 10k and Christmas Pudding 10k.
Social and competitive groups within the club, regularly meet up to train on non-club nights, organising trips to local races and larger national races.
For those who wish to participate, we also hold an internal club championship series of races and virtual challenges each month. As points are awarded for a range of age categories, everyone stands a chance of becoming a category trophy winner at the end of the year.
Monthly Newsletters and regular posts on our club Facebook and Twitter sites keeps members informed of everything that is going on at the club.
Who should you contact?
Ask anyone at the Club to point you in the direction of a Committee Member or coach. They will answer any questions and introduce you to the Membership Secretary.
You can also use one of the email links found on this website to contact the club to ask questions before coming down to meet us or post a message on our club Facebook site.
Benefits of Membership
Whether you are a social or competitive runner, there are a wide range of benefits available, depending on the membership option you select when joining the club. These benefits are detailed more clearly in the Join section.
