What is Kestrels all about?
The aim of the sessions is very simple - to introduce the whole range of athletics events to children in a fun and fulfilling way through coaching from highly experienced qualified coaches.
All children are welcome, no matter what their ability and potential, as we believe that everyone can improve with our support. The club runs throughout the year - including the summer holidays.
Athletes can do one or two sessions a week (the latter only for Year6+) with High Flyers doing two sessions a week.
We currently run the Kestrel Club at the following times:
| Day | Time | School years | Venue |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tuesday | 17:00–18:15 | Years 4+ | Kingston (Kingsmeadow) |
| Wednesday | 17:00–18:15 | Years 2–5 | Epsom (Poole Road) |
| Wednesday | 18:30–19:45 | Years 6+ | Epsom |
| Thursday | 17:00–18:15 | Years 6+ ** | Kingston |
| Sunday | 09:30–10:45 | Years 2–5 | Kingston |
| Sunday | 11:00–12:15 | Years 6+ | Kingston |
| Tue & Thu | 18:30–19:45 | Years 8–13 (High Flyers only) | Kingston |
| Friday | 17:00–18:00 | Yr 2+ | Walton (Xcel Sports Centre) |
** here athletes can concentrate on individual event groups (sprints, middle distances or throws) if they enjoy one area than others
We have recently started a new session at Walton XCel centre on Fridays 17:00 - 18:00.
We are collaborating with another athletics provider on this one, Aspire Athletics. To register, please go to this link

Prices
We offer a Taster session for first time athletes, so you can see if you like what we do (you will!!!).
The first one is £10, with any further pay-as-you-go session £25 thereafter. Please contact us at kestrelclub@momentumsports.co.uk if you'd like to book a trial session (or to ask any other question about our coaching).
If you would like to commit more long-term after trying us out, then the cost of the sessions are:
| Subscription period | Once a week | Twice a week |
|---|---|---|
| 3 months | £205 | £310 |
| 6 months | £325 | £510 |
| 12 months | £550 | £800 |
| After an initial period with Kestrels (at the prices above), there is the option to switch to a monthly standing order if you'd rather | £75 / month | £120 / month |
Try before you commit: first taster session £10, then pay-as-you-go at £25 per session.
The price includes the cost of admission to the track, all coaching, and prizes / goodies for athletes. It also includes membership of Momentum Track Club, which gives athletes access to league competitions organised through the club and an England Athletics registration number in order to compete in a far wider range of competitions.
We are looking to develop each individual's talents as far as possible so that they can enjoy the great sport that many of us have been involved in for years. This will provide a great platform for future athletic and sporting achievement for the youngsters involved.
The Kestrel Club presents an "Athlete of the Day" award each session. There are good prizes to be had (hoodies, t-shirts, hats etc), and is based on dedication, good behaviour and good performance etc.
High Flyers
High Flyers is the first progression an athletes development beyond the main Kestrel groups. It is a stepping stone to a more senior "evening" group. You will be able to do more of the events you like the most and the training will be a bit more advanced.
Some of the older athletes joining Kestrels will be able to step right up to this level straight away if they wish.
To achieve this level, High Flyers will need to sign up to do two sessions a week because we believe to take your athletics on to this level requires a little more commitment (as with any session we run, attendance is not mandatory, but payment is for the two sessions a week and generally athletes attend as often as they can).
You can choose any two sessions in the week, provided the details given say it is suitable for your age group.
We recommend that those in Year10 upwards do the sessions at 18:30on a Tuesday and Thursday - although if you are not available for these, you can choose other sessions.
Younger High Flyers can do these sessions, but we might limit these to older athletes if the numbers become too large for the two coaches who work this session to sensibly coach. Unlike other sessions in the week we can't expand this group beyond two coaches as we don't have the space on the track.
Long-term Absences
If an athlete is part way through a subscription period and, for any reason, needs to miss a significant period of time with us (whether it be injury / illness etc), then please let us know.
We will extend subs in these circumstances, provided we know about them in advance (otherwise we'll still be getting coaches etc down for sessions for the athlete).
When we extend subs we do so by the period left, minus three weeks because this is the amount of time we expect an athlete, on average, to miss in any three month period when we set the prices in the first place (otherwise they would all be higher for everyone).
We do not offer refunds.
Please contact us at kestrelclub@momentumsports.co.uk if this needs to happen at any point.
