Meet the Mini Athletics SW London Team

We have a small but brilliant team of Coaches at Mini Athletics South West London. We are hoping to expand in 2025, so watch this space for vacancies!

All our coaches share a love of sport and a passion to get young children moving and learning key skills in a fun and engaging way. They are highly trained to deliver the Mini Athletics programme, and through appraisals and on-going support, we make sure each Coach delivers high quality classes for your children each week. All our Coaches hold an Enhanced DBS Certificate, Child Safeguarding and First Aid qualifications.
