Women's Track & Field

UWRF Track & Field to host 'Let Women Decathlon' Camp July 23-24

RIVER FALLS, Wis. - UW-River Falls Track & Field is scheduled to host the Let Women Decathlon Inaugural Track & Field clinic on July 23-24, 2022 at Ramer Field inside David Smith Stadium in River Falls.

Even though this clinic is in honor of the Let Women Decathlon movement, it is open to boys and girls in elementary, middle, and high school. The clinic will take place on the SAME TWO DAYS that the World Championships Decathlon is happening so that while your athletes are having fun learning the events, they can see what the pros are doing at the same time.

The clinic is for athletes who:

  • Want to get a feel for what doing a decathlon would be like 
  • Have no decathlon desire, but want to branch out and try new events 
  • Want two days in the sun "playing" track and field 

The clinic will be two days long where athletes will be coached on all 10 events to broaden their understanding and give them a taste of each one. After some coaching, each athlete will get one, unofficial competition effort in each event for a mark to keep track of how well they are doing. All of this with a fun, low-pressure environment!

Day One Events:

100m dash, long jump, shot put, high jump, 400m dash

Day Two Events:

110m/100 hurdles, discus, pole vault, javelin, 1500m run 

If your athlete has never participated in these events, there is no pressure to do any of these at full capacity. We will make this age/individual appropriate for all! (We even have little mini "hurdles" and other mini-implements for the younger athletes.)
