Membership of the club represents extremely good value. Some of the benefits of Central Athletic Club membership are:

  • meet, train and socialise with other runners and improve your running
  • four training venues across our area (Stirling, Alloa, Callander, Balfron)
  • we only charge an annual membership fee: members of some other clubs have to pay every time they go training
  • twice-weekly training sessions in Stirling, and once-weekly at our other venues
  • the club pays to help our coaches keep their qualifications up to date – they all donate their time for free
  • access to the leagues of which we are a member, for example, indoor and outdoor track and East District cross-country
  • entries paid to all relay events, whether track, road or cross-country
  • entries paid for juniors and those in full-time education at district and national cross-country championships, and for U12 Superteams on the track (both indoors and out)
  • competition access to composite league teams that Central AC is part of
  • access to funding for developing athletes travelling to events outside Scotland
  • a range of club kit for competition and training, only available to club members
  • club discount at Run4It in Bridge of Allan
  • the club is a member of SportsShoes club affiliation programme, giving club members a 15% discount on SS26 products (but please note, some products are excluded from the promotion). There is a monthly discount code which is circulated by email round club members.
