The Athletics Club at Ballymena Academy is open to all pupils in Year 8-14 and meets twice a week, Monday at School 3:30-4:30pm and Wednesday at the Antrim Forum 4:00-5:30pm, beginning at the start of the Spring term.

Everyone is welcome to experience the many different events using the school facilities and those at the Antrim Forum.

The NEBSSA and District competitions take place throughout the months of April and May. Due to the limited number of spaces in each event athletes are selected to compete in these. The Ulster and Irish Schools’ Finals take place throughout the months of May and June and participation in these events are based on medalling at the District events.
