Get involved

If you’re a member of a school, college or independent athletics club, you could take advantage of some of the best sports facilities in the country at RAF Cosford, near Wolverhampton. In addition to the athletics stadium, you could dive into an Olympic-sized indoor heated pool or work out in the fully equipped gymnasium. The facilities are open to people of all ages and all skill levels.

Athletic events frequently take place at Cosford so if you don’t take part, why not come along and watch. Check out the Events Finder to see what we have lined up.

Triathlon and fencing

A challenging combination of running, cycling and swimming, triathlon is one of the fastest growing sports in the UK, while fencing, with foil, epee or sabre, is also becoming increasingly popular. You could try your hand at both with the RAF.

See RAF athletes in action

RAF athletics teams compete against civilian athletics clubs throughout the year. Our facilities have also played host to many Olympic and World Championship events over the years, and we’re proud of the part we’ve played to help develop young athletes.
