What is Starting Blocs?

“Starting Blocs is a fun, exciting program to introduce children to the sport of athletics.”

Children will learn the key movement skills needed for a life in sport, in a safe and positive environment, through games that are designed to teach children the foundations of running, jumping, and throwing.
