Formed in March 2002. Idle A.C. is an active new club,
which provides regular training opportunities for runners of all abilities
through the weekly running nights on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Club members
choose which and how many sessions to attend. There is a positive training
ethic, a recognition of the importance of progress, and weekly coached
sessions run by qualified coaches. The club has a Committee who meet on
a regular basis and an AGM is held in March/April each year. All the committee
members are qualified coaches. We currently have 1 x Level 3, 3
x level 2 and 3 x level 1 coaches in the club. |

The Club competes in the West Yorkshire Winter League (WYWL) which has five races each year. This is an entry level league with a positive and friendly ethos. It consists of smaller West Yorkshire clubs, and encourages slower runners and those new to the sport, as well as having a competitive "top end". The emphasis, although there are individual awards, is on team participation. Chris Smith, Idle A.C.'s secretary has been co-ordinator of this league for several years, during which time it has become a central part of the running calendar for theparticipating clubs.
