Our Track Club
Since 1970, the Calgary Spartans Track and Field Club has promoted the development of athletes at all levels.
While the club has produced many provincial, national, and Olympic team members, it also strives to develop young talent in our sport.
Today, more than 45 athletes, ranging in age from 12 to 50+, train and compete in disciplines ranging from 60m to decathlon.
The club's four coaches provide quality training in the main areas of athletics; power, sprints, distance, and junior development.
Check out Our Coaches and Our Programs pages to find out more about training the club offers.
