About Maldwyn Harriers

Maldwyn Harriers is based at Maldwyn Leisure Centre in Newtown, Powys, Wales. Junior athletes from age eight receive an introduction to running, jumping and throwing, while adult groups cover beginner running, steady social outings and more structured training. Volunteers provide the coaching, team management and organisation behind the programme.

The club offers a ten-week beginner course and intermediate sessions for runners who can already cover about five kilometres. Back Lane car park is a meeting point for several adult groups, including Sunday Striders, while junior athletics uses the leisure-centre track. Ask the club about the next suitable course or session before attending.

Maldwyn’s summer series brings together five local races with opportunities for club members and visiting runners. Track and field league competition and winter cross-country add other ways to take part. Membership information and separate general, adult-membership and junior contacts are available on the club website.
