Facility Guide
What is the protocol for indoor and outdoor athletic facilities? +

Members / users are only allowed access to the Athletics Area when an appropriate membership has been taken out, facility booking has been made, or drop-in session has been paid for.

Athletics facilities will be reserved for ‘Athletics Training Time’. This will take place Monday to Friday 16.00-20.00, Saturday & Sunday 09.00-12.00. Athletics Training Time is open to all ASV members, but is allocated for athletics discipline use only.

Please note that there may be bookings using part of our Indoor and Outdoor Athletics Areas during our opening hours, but members will still have access to the space. If a booking or event has exclusive use of the Indoor or Outdoor Athletics Areas which means members will not have access, we will let you know as soon as we are able.

Use of the Indoor Athletics Performance Free Weights Area does not form part of the athletics facilities and as such is a restricted area.

Use of equipment from store cupboards will not be permitted unless authorised by ASV staff and supervised by a qualified person.

What footwear can I use? +

Only standard training or running shoes or spikes (maximum 6mm) are permitted whilst using both the Indoor and Outdoor Athletics Areas

Can I wear headphones? +

Use of headphones or your mobile phone on the track or infield is not advised. This is potentially dangerous and may stop you from hearing other track users or safety announcements.

What do I do if someone says "track"? +

The term “track” is used to indicate when someone intends to overtake. On hearing someone shout, “track”, move to the outer lanes if it is safe to do so.

How should I overtake? +

The term “track” is used to indicate when you intend to overtake. When passing someone, always give plenty of warning time. Say, “track,” wait for them to move over, and continue in your lane.
