Written by Graham WadsworthIt was nice to see four of our juniors out in these championships. Three were under age, but it is good that they are getting experience under their belts and good that they all did well.

What a great run out for Charlotte Corrigan. Although she is a junior, she came 6th overall in the ladies race and was the first female junior.

Although he was the youngest runner in the race, Harry Roberts finished in 13th place out of 80 starters. What a great start to the New Year.

Red Rose Cross Country, Sephton Park - 25 November 2023
Written by Graham WadsworthOnly one junior in this race, but Lexi has shown herself to be up for racing, in addition to taking part in Park Runs. The competition in this race is tough, as the event attracts top runners from all over the country and good for Lexi in mixing it in the top circles.

Junior training is held on a Wednesday night from 7pm – 8pm at Seedhill Athletics Track in Barrowford. We cater for 8 -16 year olds.
Training is run by Matthew Watson, Nick Treitl and Richard Treitl in partnership with Pendle AC. Although we are a specialist distance running club, younger athletes of primary school age will be coached in a range of track and field events. However, in the winter, training is mainly based around endurance running.
Older athletes can specialise in endurance running with Barlick club coaches or can specialise in other track and field event groups with Pendle AC coaches (please enquire for further information).
There is no charge for our coaching but there is a fee of £4.85 each time you use the track. Alternatively, you can pay a monthly fee of £12.99, to Pendle Leisure, for an Activo pass which will give your child access to West Craven Pool in Barnoldswick, Pendle Leisure Centre Pool in Colne, the pool at Pendle Wavelengths in Nelson and Seedhill Track in Barrowford. In addition, there are junior / teenage gym sessions at each centre covered by the Activo pass (please visit Pendle Leisure website for further information or ask in one of the Pendle Leisure facilities).
We offer a three week trial period, and should athletes wish to continue training after the trial period you will need to join the club and pay the annual club membership fee (see membership page for further details).
Please email Matthew Watson to check availability and with any enquires at
Training is outside year round so children attending will need to bring suitable clothing for the conditions including a waterproof coat and a drink.
Junior Competitions
We aim to develop our juniors to compete in a range of completions including the Red Rose Cross Country League through the winter and BOFRA fell races in the summer.
Athletes can also choose to join Pendle AC as well a Barlick and complete in a track and field league in the summer.
