A.H. Elite Youth Track Club — USATF Junior Olympic Youth Track & Field
A.H. Elite Track Club is the competitive side of what we do. It is a USATF non-profit Junior Olympic youth track and field club for athletes who train, develop, and compete — not a drop-in class and not a summer camp. Athletes ages 6-18 train under Coach Ty and Coach Erin, and they learn what real competition feels like from coaches who have been there. If your athlete is looking for a team to join in the Spokane area, this is that team.
What A.H. Elite Is
A.H. Elite is a USATF non-profit Junior Olympic youth track and field club based at 3508 S Grand Blvd in Spokane, our outdoor training location. We exist so young athletes in and around Spokane can compete at the Junior Olympic level without leaving the region.
The club runs on the same coaching standards as everything else at The Athletes House Training Club: sound mechanics, purposeful practice, and a real plan instead of random workouts.
Our indoor club roster will be limited to 34 athletes total to maintain a balanced team and to ensure every athlete is able to receive individual attention and training. We are aiming to have a home meet roster and travel roster for meets based on entry times.

-
8 Hurdlers: 5 spots left
