Welcome to Tonbridge Athletic Club


Who we are and what we do

Founded in 1947, Tonbridge Athletic Club (TAC) is an all-abilities club based at Tonbridge School in Kent run entirely by volunteers. We are proud to have around 900 athletes from age 6 to adult veterans who train in a wide variety of disciplines and compete locally, regionally, nationally and internationally.


Membership & Trial Sessions

Potential members will be invited to attend trial sessions to see whether joining Tonbridge Athletic Club is appropriate for them, and help identify which particular track or field events would be of interest.

Children aged 6-9 are welcome to join our Tornados group. For more information on this please visit the Tornados section of the website.

Tonbridge Athletic Club is not currently able to accommodate those aged 9-11 but you may be interested in West Kent Athletics Club, www.westkentathleticsclub.co.uk. This is NOT affiliated to Tonbridge Athletic Club, but it is run by two of the Club’s international athletes, who are trained coaches. At age 11 you would be able to move back to Tonbridge Athletics Club.

Please visit the Trial Sessions section of our website to register for a trial with any of our groups.

Tonbridge Athletic Club (TAC) is run by volunteers for the benefit of our members. Our main income is from the annual subscriptions and we have lots of expenses; rent of the track, equipment, entries to leagues and coaching courses being just a few. We always need extra money to help the Club and would be grateful if you could consider making a donation. If you are also able to sign a Gift Aid declaration this would increase your donation by 25p of Gift Aid for every £1 you donate.
