Welcome 

Situated at the heart of Britain's oldest recorded town is the home of Colchester and Tendring Athletics Club.  We are a family friendly, inclusive club which takes pride in the opportunities that we give to all in athletics. Our dedicated volunteer coaches provide an excellent quality of coaching for all levels.  Younger athletes are encouraged with training programmes that include elements of all athletics disciplines through fun training activities.
As they progress through the club to U13's upwards, the training becomes more focused on specific events with tailored training programmes.
Please visit this web site regularly for information and news.
