Berkshire Thunder & Lightning is a youth track & field club designed to introduce kids to Track & Field. This includes running, throwing, and jumping events.
Our program is designed for youth between the ages of 7-17.
The best part of our program is that it doesn't cost anything! That is correct, there is no cost associated with joining the team.
