Track Academy Throws Taster Session at Willesden Sports Centre

Join us for a special introductory session into the world of track and field throws, led by Level 4 Throws Coach Jamie Bath alongside Track Academy’s Head of Sport, Matthew Adum-Yeboah. Whether you’re new to athletics or looking to develop a new skill, this is a great opportunity to experience events like hammer throw, shot put, discus, and javelin in a safe, supportive environment.

This taster session is open to all young athletes and will focus on:

• Fundamentals of each throwing event
• Body positioning, technique, and safe handling
• Fun drills to build strength, coordination, and explosiveness
• A welcoming intro to throws for sprinters, jumpers, and beginners alike

No previous experience is necessary—just enthusiasm and a willingness to try something new. All equipment is provided. Coaches will tailor activities based on ability and age group.
