With over 70 years of athletics experience between them, Liz and John established the Doha Athletic Club to help kids from all over the world improve their running. Now into their fourth year at DAC, the group has continued to grow and grow each year and now includes two sections: Mini Athletics (under 9s) and Juniors (9-17).
Every child deserves to have the opportunity to shine; academically, musically or through their sporting ability. Athletics is the ABC of all sports and the gateway to a healthier lifestyle. It does not matter how good or bad you are – EVERYONE can reap the benefits of exercise.
