Coaching Coaching

The Box Hill Athletic Club is lucky to have a whole team of excellent coaches registered with the Australian Track and Field Coaches Association (ATFCA).

You will find that some coaches work on a volunteer basis, but many of our highly qualified coaches, will make arrangements for payment with their athletes.

Feel free to contact any of the coaches listed below. Most of them conduct training sessions at the Box Hill track, though some of them may use other venues also.
