Track and Field

January to June

At Lightning Youth Academy, our Track season starts in January and ends in the second or third weeks of June, depending on the date of the association and regional meets.

At Lightning, we focus on physically and mentally developing youth so they can compete at local, regional, and national track meets. We don't just focus on competition but on creating meaningful memories with families.

Track is an individual sport in which we focus on developing conditioning, mental mindset, and speed. We mostly focus on longer distances, such as the 1,500 meters and 3,000 meters, but we also do shorter distances at our local track meets.

All of our trainings are designed to be enjoyable and varied. During the week, we train at our local parks and track, and on the weekends, we train at local hills and trails, making each session a new and exciting adventure.
