1-to-1 Athletics Coaches in Worthing

Private 1-to-1 athletics coaching in Worthing typically costs between £35 and £65 per hour. Coaches with academy or international coaching experience sit at the top of that range. Block bookings of 5 or 10 sessions almost always come with a discount — ask about it when you enquire.

Sessions typically run on athletics tracks and school/park facilities — around Worthing that includes Homefield Park, Beach House Park and Worthing Leisure Centre, plus school and club sites when the coach has an arrangement in place. Worthing FC at Woodside Road runs one of the strongest non-league youth pathways in Sussex, Worthing Rugby Club at Roundstone Lane and Worthing Cricket Club at Manor Sports Ground. If your athlete has a preferred venue, mention it in your enquiry — CoachSpot coaches list the venues they can travel to, and many will meet you at your local club or park.

Any coach working 1-to-1 with under-18s in the UK should hold an enhanced DBS check and a current safeguarding certificate. On CoachSpot both are mandatory — a coach's profile can't go live without them, and the verified badge on the profile means we've seen and reviewed the certificates directly. Warm-up, cool-down and progressive load matter more here than in almost any other sport — ask specifically how a coach handles them.

• Look for UKA Coach or Athletics Coach qualifications, not just personal-trainer credentials • For sprinters, ask how they'll measure progress — timing gates, video, or just feel • Confirm which events they specialise in — a generalist across throws and sprints is a red flag On CoachSpot you can filter by Worthing and by athletics, read reviews from other local families, and message a coach before booking a trial session.
