We are excited to introduce AO After School Athletics, a variety of online programs for children ages 6-12 to learn the FUNdamentals of athletics! We realize school may look a little different for some of our young athletes this year, and they may be missing out on some of the physical activity opportunities they would otherwise gain in a traditional gym class or after school program. We want to supplement those missed opportunities, while specifically introducing the sport of athletics.
We will be offering 3 different sessions including Matt’s fun Monday, Junior Olympics, and Dancing Through the FUNdamentals. Each class will offer a different style of teaching the introductory fundamental movements of track and field in it’s own creative way!
- Sessions are FREE for AO U8, U10, U12 members.
- Each session will be 30 minutes long and conducted over Zoom by a Run Jump Throw Wheel certified instructor.
- Each class will be once a week, for a four week duration.
We encourage existing AO members to sign up and participate in classes that do not interfere with scheduled practices!
