Training athletes for more than 50 years

Formerly the Fredericton Legion Track Club

The Fredericton reds Track and Field provides athletes of all ages and all levels an opportunity to develop their talents to the fullest. Running, jumping and throwing form the basis of athletics just as they do most other sports. Training for athletics includes improving your physical conditioning in areas such as flexibility, strength, power, speed, and endurance.

Our programs are crafted for athletes from 7 to 99 years old and follow the spirit of the Long Term Athlete Development established by Athletics Canada.  The Fredericton reds Track and Field is active year round providing up to 3 training sessions per week (depends on age and goals). Training for all events of track and field is supervised by National Coach Certification Program trained and experienced coaches. Training programs are adapted to the needs of each athlete.

Athletes of the Fredericton reds Track and Field have represented the province on many occasions at national competitions. Several athletes have provincial records and have been to international meets. The Club travels to local and provincial competitions, while some of our athletes will compete in the Maritime, Eastern US, or further away.
