Description

South London Harriers is a club rich in history. It was founded in 1871, making it one of the four oldest athletic clubs in the country. The Club caters for all abilities, with plenty of opportunities for competition and training for men, women and young athletes.

During the winter activity is focused at the SLH Headquarters in Coulsdon, which is ideally situated for cross-country racing and road running training. In the summer, focus switches to track and field. Since 1991 the Club's track and field base has been Crystal Palace National Sports Centre, which offers some of the best facilities in the country including an all weather track and weight training room.

Both track and Clubhouse remain open all year for training. Qualified coaches are available to supervise training and offer advice and encouragement. The club is very active socially, organising various events during the year.

Cross-Country
SLH men's and women's teams compete in the Surrey League Division 1. In addition the Club competes in the Surrey County, South of the Thames, Southern and National Championships. There are also inter club races (mob matches) which go back over 100 years, and internal club championships. SLH won the Senior Mens Surrey County Cross Country Championships for the 1999/2000 season.

Road Running
SLH is represented at most local races. The Club organises a ten mile race every August and three informal 10km races.

Track and Field
SLH participates in the Southern and Rosenheim Leagues and GRE Cup. The Club also organises three open meetings during the summer, which are combined with Club Championships.

Young Athletes
SLH has invested heavily in time and resources in recent years on our young athlete programme. Training is provided weekly at Crystal Palace track and on Thursdays in Coulsdon. Young athletes compete on the track and field in both the boys' and girls' MacDonald's Young Athletes Leagues, and in cross-country races through the winter.
