Mini Athletics Cambridge and Saffron Walden

Mini Athletics Cambridge and Saffron Walden Inspiring Mini Athletes under 8 in Cambridge & Saffron Walden! Building confidence and friendships! They also build cognitive and social skills.

At Mini Athletics, we focus on having fun through physical play. Developed by a primary PE teacher and an athletic development coach, Mini Athletics is the start of your child’s fantastic journey in sporting movement. Children are introduced to the basics of athletic movement skills (running, jumping and throwing) in a play-based yet structured format. Your child will be encouraged to develop athl

etic skills that are fundamental to their early physical development. It is a great opportunity to bond with your child through fun activities.

You know your child best.

You know when they need somewhere to burn off energy, when they need a little confidence boost, or when they just need an activity they genuinely cannot wait to get back to.

At Mini Athletics, children do not just run, jump and throw. They become part of the adventure, take on challenges, make friends and leave buzzing about what they did!

The best part is seeing children who were unsure at first grow in confidence week after week, simply because they are having so much fun they do not realise how much they are learning.

Book them a taster and see why so many children rush back each week!:

Celebrating Zoë!

A huge well done to Zoë for completing her second Bronze Sticker Book!

Zoë has been with us since she was just walking, and these photos show just how special her Mini Athletics journey has been. From those early sessions to now flying around the hall and field, it has been amazing to watch her grow in confidence, energy and ability.

And wow, does she bring energy. Every week Zoë gives absolutely everything, usually with her dad chasing close behind trying to keep up. It is always so lovely to see.

One of Coach Ryan’s favourite ever Mini Athletics photos is still Zoë receiving her Bronze certificate. The pride, excitement and smile said everything.

Sadly, Zoë will only be with us for a few more weeks before moving up north to Newcastle...

But how amazing is this?

Zoë and her parents love Mini Athletics so much that they have already been in touch with Taylor to make sure she can carry on her journey.

Here’s to Zoë.

We are so proud of everything you have achieved with us, and we cannot wait to see what you go on to do in Newcastle. Keep bringing that amazing energy.

Another Impington celebration!

A huge well done to Jacob for receiving his very first Mini Athletics certificate!

And we are absolutely loving this new Impington tradition of parents joining in with the certificate photos. Just look how proud his dad is!

Looking through the brilliant photos from , you can just tell how much Jacob absolutely loves his sessions. The energy, the smiles and the way he throws himself into everything is amazing to see.
Coach Ryan still remembers watching Jacob back when he was in Didees and being blown away by how fast he was. He was speeding past all the Mini Athletes in the races like a rocket!

Since moving up to Littles, Coach Jess has said Jacob has really got stuck in and is improving every week.

That move from Didees to Littles is a big step. More team games, bigger challenges and a little bit more structure. But once the children settle into it, they really do thrive.

We can’t wait to see what Jacob achieves next.

Keep going, Jacob!

We’ve been very vocal about using our coaches to race the children.

Why?

Because it brings the best out of them!

When Coach Jess decided to line up next to them, it wasnt just a race...

It’s excitement, confidence, laughter, determination and that little extra push they might not find on their own.

But the best bit?

The sportsmanship at the end!

That moment where the race finishes and it turns straight into smiles, respect and celebrating each other.

We’ve worked with Trumpington Park for the last three years, and for many of these children, our coaches have been one of their first external mentors outside of school staff and family.

That matters.

Because through these fun, professional relationships, they learn so much more than running, jumping and throwing.

They learn how to compete properly, how to respect others, how to handle challenge, how to celebrate effort and how to carry themselves after the race is done.

That’s what we love seeing.

Not just fast feet.

The foundations of something much bigger!

This is Mini Athletics.

To us, it’s running, jumping, throwing, teamwork and confidence.

To them, it’s holding GoGo while they save fish from a hungry shark.

Putting aliens back with their families.
Piloting a plane to drop off passengers.
Getting GoGo’s garden ready for guests.
Cooking a meal before the next big mission.

That’s why it works.

Children do not fall in love with movement because we tell them it is good for them.

They fall in love with it because it feels like an adventure they want to be part of every week.

Book a taster and see what they talk about all the way home.
