We understand that many of our affiliated clubs will be facing unplanned challenges at this time and will be looking to maintain contact with members to encourage them to stay active and stay engaged with the club. To help assist clubs, our Club Support Team have produced a series of Club Support webinars, FAQ webinars, Virtual Club drop in sessions and Virtual Club forums.
Club Support webinars
The Club Support webinars focus on specific issues affecting clubs at this time. Unless otherwise stated, the webinars are delivered twice per day (morning session and afternoon session) in order to try accommodate as many people as possible.

FAQs webinars
Over the past few months, our FAQs webinars have been providing an opportunity for club representatives to ask questions to CEO Chris Jones, and Head of Coaching and Athlete Development Martin Rush, regarding England Athletics guidance and the latest government guidelines. The series has currently finished but watch this space for any new dates.
Virtual Club Forums
Our series of free Virtual Club Forums is designed to share news and updates to clubs whilst also bringing clubs together to share ideas, successes, challenges and good practice. Our latest sessions have taken place – please check back for any updates.
Club Support Drop In Sessions
Our Virtual Club Support Drop in Sessions are designed to provide an opportunity for clubs to book a designated time for an online meeting / call with an England Athletics Club Support Manager. This could be to discuss and/or receive guidance on a specific club matter, or to discuss club development support. Drop in sessions can be arranged with one or multiple club representatives and can take place over the phone or through an online meeting (using Microsoft Teams). Our latest sessions have taken place – please check back for further updates.
