funetics is a fun and inclusive kids athletics programme, created by England Athletics to help 4-11 year old children across the country to learn, develop and practice running, jumping and throwing skills all year round, for a healthy confident future.
Helping children to have fun whilst getting active, funetics provides a safe, fun and nurturing environment for children to develop fundamental movement skills and confidence to help support them in different sports in the future.
Curly's Athlete coaches deliver funetics with support and guidance from England Athletics
Get in touch with our coaching team to see if we have space and get the information you need to get booked on :)
Help keep up to date with all things Funetics, latest sessions, updates, support and advice.
Coming soon ... thanks to the generosity of our amazing running community we raised nearly £1200. This allowed us to buy all the equipment, pay for the training and hire the facility for many weeks to come.
We're now working out easy ways for you to be able to support.
We want to keep these sessions free and grow our Funetics courses, doing more leaders and helping more junior athletes get active, have fun and discover sport :)

We start and finish all our session with some easy stretching and sometime a spot of plyometrics (like jumping :) ) ... all good fun and all supported by our coaches (giggles and sniggers are allowed throughout!)
Then we head into interval type sessions, splitting to groups up based on current running level. This means you're with people of similar pace, but we still all train together.
Interval sessions means everyone can out the effort they want into the session and be comfortable at their own pace, but we all get to train together.
We tend to see between 40 and 80 people in attendance.

This session is designed for 18's and overs, but also suitable for children aged 11 and up if accompanied by an adult. We tend to cover around 3-4 miles in an evening, for those going a bit faster this can be 5-6 miles.
