Registration for the Fall 2025 Athletics Schools in Varissuo and Halinen is now open!
This fall, we’re organizing a low-threshold athletics school in Varissuo and Halinen for 14 weeks. The athletics school offers versatile training in various track and field events under the guidance of skilled and inspiring coaches. No previous experience is required – everyone is welcome!
You can pay for the athletics school using the City of Turku’s Boostii benefit. More information about the Boostii benefit can be found on the City of Turku’s website: https://www.turku.fi/liikunta/boostii-etu.
For help with registration and using the Boostii benefit, contact: Tuukka Mäkinen, 040 535 9677, tuukka.makinen@sul.fi.
We hope to receive registrations by August 25, but late sign-ups are also possible!
