About the Club

Holland Sports Athletic Club is a small, friendly club situated in pleasant, semi-rural surroundings in Oxted, Surrey, England¹. Our teams compete mainly in local cross-country and track & field leagues. We have a particularly strong and growing junior section - both girls and boys - training under the supervision of qualified coaches and competing for the club in various local leagues.

The clubhouse and track (which benefits from flood lights) are located in Mill Lane, Hurst Green. Click here for a map and here for an aerial photograph.

Everyone is welcome. Come down to the club during one of our Tuesday and Thursday evening training sessions and speak to one of our members. Or get in touch with our head coach Nigel Bongers (Tel 01883 712087, Mob 07710 404122) who'll be happy to answer your questions and show you around. You can also email us.

Training Sessions

Training sessions are held on Tuesday and Thursday evenings throughout the year at Mill Lane. The sessions take place from 7pm to 8pm for juniors, and from 8pm to 9pm for seniors. Our aim is to help athletes of all abilities - from beginners to the more experienced - and all ages - from young children and teenagers through to seniors and veterans - to improve their performances in running and in the main track & field disciplines. We have a growing group of qualified coaches to help members achieve their potential.

Oxted Runners

Our sister club, Oxted Runners, holds regular Tuesday night road runs around Oxted during the winter, Tuesday evening country runs through the summer, and its members enter a variety of road and trail races across the region, ranging from 10km to marathon. Many members of Oxted Runners run for Holland Sports AC in the Surrey cross-country leagues. For more information about Oxted Runners, visit their website by clicking here.

¹ Why the name Holland? It's got nothing to do with the Netherlands. Holland is a neighbourhood of Hurst Green, near Oxted, where the club is situated, and it's an old Anglo-Saxon placename denoting cultivated land on a hill.
