Elyria Youth Track Club, Oberlin College Track and Field partner for clinic
The Elyria Youth Track Club, a program of the Elyria Youth Sports Club, is set to partner with Oberlin College Track and Field for a clinic.
The clinic will take place from 5-7 p.m. Jan. 7 at Oberlin College.
The clinic, open to all Elyria Youth Track athletes, will focus on showing young athletes fundamental and advanced techniques directly from Oberlin College Track and Field athletes and coaches, according to Aric Bowens, CEO of Elyria Youth Sports Club.
“I know last year, we went to an indoor track meet — our whole organization — and we got to meet Coach Izzy (Alexander, assistant coach for Oberlin College Track and Field),” Bowens said. “Since then, myself and Coach Izzy have been in communication with how can we get our kids infused with Oberlin College Track?”
According to Alexander, athletes participating in the clinic will learn a variety of skills and techniques in different stations at the college indoor track.
Youngsters will have exposure to different aspects of track through stations incorporating horizontal jumping into a sand pit, throwing shot puts, running sprints and relay racing, she said.
“This particular event is the first community event that we’re being involved with that specifically relates to track and field, so that’s something we’re really excited about,” Alexander said. “We hope to make it an annual event.”
With the clinic, Alexander said a vision is to help the youngsters feel more comfortable in their athletic ability, but also make them familiar with Oberlin College and the athletes they will interact with.
Athletes also can have a vision for what their future could look like if they wish to further their track career, Alexander said.
“If you can see it, you can be it,” she said. “They can realize that college and being a collegiate athlete is something that they can achieve, too, because they will have been more familiar with Oberlin.
“Track and field really has been a transformative part of our lives, and this event is kind of a way to give back and a way to foster continued participation.”
Alexander said the Oberlin College Track and Field team has continued to nurture its presence in the community by partnering with organizations like Oberlin Community Services, Oberlin Heritage Center and the Western Reserve Land Conservancy.
The Track and Field Clinic also marks a positive first step in a strong relationship with the Elyria Youth Track Club.
“We’re really thrilled to host this event,” Alexander said. “They’ve been really terrific to work with.”
Bowens said there are around 50 athletes in the Track Club who practice throughout the year, and participate in training like weight lifting and conditioning.
This “invaluable experience” for young track athletes will help strengthen their athletic ability, and connect them to different resources and organizations in Lorain County.
“I think it is an amazing opportunity,” Bowens said. “We’re super excited, just for this experience for our children.
“We would love to continue to keep the relationships going and growing for our organization.”
