Welcome

Longwood Harriers Athletic Club is a Competitive Athletics (Track & Field) and Running club; it began as a running group from St Mark's Church in Longwood, Huddersfield in 1888. We are now based at Leeds Road, Huddersfield and as the facilities there no longer cater for a range of athletics events, we also use Cleckheaton Athletics Track. We welcome members from the whole community aged nine and older
