At Sarnia ASW we pride ourselves in our commitment to developing the sport of track and field and providing the support and means for athletes who have talent and interest in the sport to grow into the best athletes they can be. We have several programs for athletes of all abilities, from youth development to elite performance. 

Programs

DEvelopment

Our development program is for athletes in high school, or post secondary looking to further develop their abilities outside of the short school season. We offer access to world-class coaching with many opportunities for one-on-one athlete-coach interaction. 

Please also realize that this is a club for athletes wishing to advance their abilities and overall fitness levels after already proving to be successful at the elementary and especially the high school levels.  We are looking for dedicated athletes who will be able to attend all practices and meets without any  conflict from other sporting activities or external commitments. While at practice and in competition we  are looking for very respectful athletes who demonstrate a strict and complete effort at all times.

Practices 

Practices are run through out the year, and while practices will run most days, athletes should be prepared to attend at least three practices per week. Time and location may vary dependent on season and weather. Please ensure you are aware of your specific event group practice schedule:

Our elite program is specifically geared towards athletes looking to make their mark on the national and international stage.

Membership and Fee Breakdown

Seasonal membership fee for Sarnia ASW is $350 plus the Athletics Ontario registration fee. The Athletics Ontario Fee varies based on the age of the athlete. Athletics Ontario fee schedule can be found here. 

MEMBERSHIP

All memberships include meet entry, access to facilities and equipment and access to individualized training programs from certified coaches. Athletes will be required to provide their own transportation to and from competitions and practices as well as accommodations unless otherwise arranged. 

No athlete will be denied membership because of financial hardship. Sarnia ASW strives to give all athletes who are interested in the sport of athletics a chance to grow and develop. This will be decided at the discretion of the Executive Committee; the athlete may arrange an alternate method of payment such as incremental payments, or covenant with the Sarnia ASW to the rising of his or her membership by way of fund raising.
