THE OFFICIAL HOME OF WREXHAM ATHLETICS CLUB
We realise that as a new or prospective member of the club you will not be familiar with who's who, what's what or where to look or who to ask to find out all you need to know about the club. We have produced this site to try and help you through your early days with the club and point you in the right direction.
Here at Wrexham Amateur Athletic Club we believe that all our members are equally important and our aim is to provide coaching, training and competition for all. This website aims to inform you of the various leagues and competitions that the club enters.
By being a member of this club you are a member of the team.
All we ask is that you wear the maroon vest of the club with pride, compete fairly to the best of your ability and always conduct yourself in such a manner that you bring honour to the club and the people of Wrexham.
We aim to attract more athletes into the club for the track and field season.
Anyone interested is invited to come down to the Queensway track on Tuesday or Thursday evenings to find out more about the club and to chat with coaches and other club officials. If you wish to get involved in a session, you simply need to pay track entry at the Queensway on the night that you train, you are welcome to 2 taster sessions with WAAC before we ask you to join the club as a member.
Sessions are for Children, minimum age of 8 years old all the way to Senior & Masters age groups. Sessions for children under 8 may be available through Active Wrexham / Starting Blocs but not WAAC directly.
