WELCOME!
The Birmingham Running Athletics & Triathlon Club (the BRAT Club) is a dynamic and successful running, athletics and triathlon club with bases in both the north (Sutton Coldfield) and south (Moseley/Selly Oak) of Birmingham. Much of the success of the Club stems from its open, welcoming, friendly, and inclusive nature. We are a "participation for all" club, and welcome new members of all ages (from 8 to 80+) and abilities (from complete novices to experienced international athletes).
Athletics: The BRAT Club offers a full range of track & field, cross country and road running disciplines, with coached training sessions and competitions at both local and national level. The Athletics contact is Richard Carney (vice chairman: athletics). Athletics information is at www.birminghamrowheath.co.uk
Triathlon: We welcome everyone who wants to try out or compete in multisport events such as aquathlon, duathlon and triathlon. We have a strong track record in supporting novices through to their first triathlon and beyond. We also do well at top level competition: at the 2009 National Club Relays, the BRAT Club gained the most top podium places, being national champions in women's, men's vet 40, men's vet 50 and open events.
Juniors welcome: We actively encourage and provide coaching for juniors at any of the athletics disciplines and multisport events. We have a strong junior programme with dedicated coaches and specific junior training sessions.
