Gala Harriers Family Membership 1st April 2025- 31st March 2026

Welcome to Gala Harriers!

Starting from the 1st April 2025 Gala Harriers will no longer use Stack Team App. Session information will be on the web page.  www.galaharriers.co.uk

As an alternative to Stack Team app there will be a Junior Session Register

All juniors must register at every session without exception.

Why is Registration Important?

• Ensures we have an accurate record of attendance.
• Helps us monitor participation and engagement.
• Allows us to maintain safety and accountability.
• Aids in planning and improving future sessions.

Please make sure to register as soon as you arrive. Your cooperation is essential in keeping our sessions organised and effective.

Gala Harriers will do their best to offer as many sessions as coaching ratios will allow. In some cases the session size will be limited if there are not sufficient coaches / volunteers. 

Join Our Team – Make a Difference!

A great club needs great people, and we’d love your help! 🌟

As we gear up for our spring/summer athletics programme, we’re looking for parent helpers to support our Thursday track nights. Last year, we had over 100 young Harriers training, and our coaches would really appreciate extra hands to help with:

✅ Organising groups
✅ Marshalling activities
✅ Encouraging positive behaviour

We’re also on the lookout for additional coaches to assist with senior training.

If you’re interested, please reach out or come have a chat—we’d love to have you on board! 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️💙
