Mini-Camp

Twice a year, at the beginning of the spring/summer season and again at the beginning of the fall/winter season, the Spartans hold a Mini-Camp for 9 – 13 year old athletes. The camp is about two hours long  and is designed to be a fun introduction to athletics – running, jumping and throwing.

Summer Camp

CANCELLED: The summer camp is a five-day camp held in July for 9 – 13 year old athletes. It includes techniques and skills in athletics – running, jumping, and throwing. It is held outside at the track and led by coaches and athletes from the Spartans. The program is designed by Jessica Zelinka – Canada’s own two-time Olympian and current Head Coach of the University of Calgary Dinos Track and Field and Cross Country Teams.

It is designed to be fun, while still motivating young athletes to challenge themselves in the sport of Athletics.
