Juvenile Athletics in Ireland is defined by age groups, from senior infants. Only DBB AC members can take part in training sessions.
In DBB AC we believe in training hard and competing hard, while having fun and enjoying ourselves. This ethos has resulted in many of our former juvenile athletes making firm friendships during their juvenile years which, in many cases, have outlasted their interest in the sport itself. Many of our senior athletes, including most of our international standard senior athletes, joined our Club as juveniles.
Athletes generally train with athletes of their own approximate age; this is for social reasons as much as training reasons. Training intensity increases with age and fitness, and our coaches are watchful of individual capability and manage the training sessions so that athletes of different abilities are stretched according to their ability.
As athletes get older they will steer more towards their preferred events and training becomes more specialized depending on the preferred discipline. DBB AC caters for athletes across all running categories from sprints to hurdles, jumps and throws.
Note: Junior athletes must be dropped off at 6.55pm and collected from the training area no later than 7.55pm. Each athlete is required to contribute €2 towards club developments. Please have suitable footwear and clothes for running. Also, please bring some water in an identifiable bottle (to avoid sharing of bottles)
