Striders Background

We have been part of the local community for some 20 years now.  The club is aimed at all standards of running from social runners to those who wish to pursue and acheive their own goals.

The club has, at present, around 40 members, and meet for training sessions on a regular basis at Driffield Rugby Club.

Club committee meetings are held once a month to allow members to express their views and bring along new ideas. In addition there are social functions for members, family and friends.  If interested, please either call Andrew Boyes or come along to one of our regular training sessions.  We meet at Driffield Rugby Club on Tuesdays at 7:30pm and on Thursdays at 7:00pm
