"Run with Confidence"

Our Sprint Club is based on the sunny southern Gold Coast in Queensland, my name is Colleen Tukino or affectionately known as "Coach Wal", I am a Mum of three active children with a shared love & passion for running.  I am an Accredited Athletics Coach & Beach Coach. My goal is building  "Running Confidence" with a grassroots approach to sprinting, improving technique, speed, co-ordination, agility - building confidence that children carry on to their chosen sport & apply to everyday life.

We cater to all children, all levels from all sports, from ages 5yrs to 8yrs in our Little Sprint Club & 9yrs to 12yrs in our Junior Sprint Club sessions & 13yrs to 16yrs in our Teen Sprint Club. (ages are a guide only and aimed at their stage of development)

Running efficiently & correctly is a learned skill and game changer for children & their confidence no matter what their chosen sport. I started out in little Athletics & like most younger siblings watching my older brother & sister until it was my time to give it a go & loved it & then as I grew up & gained more running confidence I took on more sports & had a go at touch football, netball, soccer, basketball, surfing, you name it I tried it, but wasn't until the age of 12 in  Beach Sprinting that I slowly started to really excel, going on to win numerous State, National & back to back World Titles in Beach Sprinting, representing Queensland & Australia multiple times throughout my career.  

Since coming back to my athletics roots and having children of my own I am passionate that all children should be taught how to RUN!! My coaching style is fun, firm, fair, structured with my aim to instill & inspire confidence in each child I coach so to unlock their potential.  

See you on the track/beach!!
