About
Finland's largest athletics club, founded in 1909, with about 2,000 members, a third of them children and teens. Kids start in a sports play school at 3 to 4, move to athletics school at 5 to 9, then join competitive or hobby groups for sprints, jumps, throws and distance running.
Younger groups meet in school gyms and sports parks across the city; older groups train at Eläintarha and Pirkkola.
