Athletics is an ancient sport in which athletes compete individually and in groups for distance, speed, and height. In recent years, athletics has increased, national awards are being won, and the Netherlands is becoming increasingly familiar with top athletics. A great example is the Olympic Games, where the Netherlands won many medals. Those in the know included a former Lionitasser, Siffan Hassan (Olympic marathon winner).

AV Lionitas in Leeuwarden offers the opportunity to get acquainted with the sport of athletics. You can choose to participate in the running component (short distance, medium distance, and long-distance) or the classical athletics component.
