Hurdle Sundays at Kingston

Want to be a better hurdler - our elite coaches can help you run faster.

Improve your hurdling skills



Come every week, or drop in from time to time

Hurdle sessions on Sundays every week at Kingsmeadow Stadium in Kingston (KT1 3PB) with Richard Holt and Mark Purser.

The aim of these sessions is simple - we want to make you a better hurdler, whether that be technique over the hurdles, stronger take-off, starts, stride pattern or anything else. The sessions will compliment other work you do in the week - whether that is with us or elsewhere on your own or with other coaches. If you have a coach, they are very welcome to join us for these sessions too, this is about cooperative learning, so athletes across the board can benefit.

Here at Momentum Sports we've helped hundreds of athletes to hurdle. From total beginners to elite performers, these session will have something for you.

Over the years we've had national age group champions, both in the junior and masters ranks and have coached the likes of Nicole Kendall, Kira Holt, Ruben Hedman, Mae Thompson, Tom Parry, Pippa Earley, Gracelyn Kendeck, Max Leon, Alex Parkinson, Chris Hall, Laura Darcey and Simon Byway amongst many others.

Head Coach, Richard Holt, was a British Champs finalist in 1995 and 5 times British Masters Champion at 400m hurdles. He's been coaching for 25 years and helped all the athletes above.

As well as being one of the top starters (having worked at Commonwealth Games, European Championships and World Indoor Championships), Mark Purser is a former 3x English School silver medallist at sprint hurdles and a very experienced coach.

These sessions are for all abilities and age groups (from U13s upwards) and, depending on size, will be split based on the individual needs of athletes who attend - whether that be sprints and 400 hurdles, or along lines of levels of experience etc..
