Welcome to Holland Sports Athletics Club

We’re a small, friendly club situated in pleasant, semi-rural surroundings in Hurst Green, Oxted, Surrey. We have a floodlit athletics track, enabling us to train throughout the year, a clubhouse and an enthusiastic team of coaches.

The Senior Endurance Squad at Holland Sports Athletics Club will be hosting an evening of Sportshall Athletics for all the juniors at Holland Sports on Friday 23rd January at Hazelwood School.

If you are member of Holland Sports, then you are more than welcome to join us. We’d love to have you along for an exciting couple of hours of running, jumping and throwing activities, all within the sports hall up at Hazelwood.

E-mail us if you’d like more information or you’d like to attend. We look forward to seeing you there.

Holland Sports Athletics Club and the wider Holland Sports and Social Association welcomed 1000 junior and senior athletes to the clubhouse: it was a great day with some great racing. Enjoy!

A Little Bit About Us

We cater for adults and juniors, and compete in all track and field disciplines as well as middle and long distance running, including cross-country.

Our History

Holland Sports and Social Association was founded in 1929 as solely the football club, Holland Rovers. The Athletics Club was formally established in 1982. The name Holland dates back to 1757 and is derived from ‘Hollands’ meaning ‘land by the hill’. This is a fitting description of the beautiful, undulating hills and scenic running routes that surround the clubhouse in every direction.

In recent years, Holland Sports Athletics Club has experienced a rapid journey of development and success, with the senior men’s and women’s middle and long distance team being promoted over successive seasons from Surrey Cross-Country League Division 4, to Division 1, competing against some of the top clubs in the country.

Training

We offer coaching for both junior and senior athletes starting from the age of seven upwards. Our junior programmes aim to provide a pathway for young athletes to develop their skills in sprinting, middle distance and field disciplines and cross-country competitions. The pathway from our junior middle distance programme leads into the senior middle and long distance programme at Holland Sports.

Community values

Holland Sports Athletics Club is part of the wider Holland Sports and Social Association that looks after four sports locally: athletics, football, darts and fishing. This volunteer lead organisation’s aims are to promote health, fitness and community spirit. The athletics club aims to mirror these goals by working with athletes of all abilities and all ages to create a community where all feel welcome and all feel able to contribute, growing coaches of the future as well as sharing our success with other local clubs and athletic organisations.
