About us


Leweston Pentathlon Academy formed 8 years ago and welcomes members, not just from Leweston School, but the wider community.  We are an official Pentathlon GB Training and Talent Hub. The academy develops athletes of all abilities in the five disciplines of Modern Pentathlon (fencing, shooting, running, swimming and OCR) either together or in combination. In addition to the full Pentathlon, members can compete in a range of multi-discipline events including Biathlon, Biathle, Triathle and Laser-Run.
The Leweston Pentathlon Programme is divided into three stages:

Development :
For younger athletes who come onto the programme with little experience, or those who do not wish to be part of a full training programme and just take part in local events and competitions.

Potential:
For athletes who have been following a regular training programme; have been taking part in local events regularly and have started to take part at a regional and national level. This stage is also for younger athletes who show the potential to move into the Performance Squad.

Performance:
For athletes from Year 9 and above who have been on a regular training programme for at least a year. They will have been taking part in national events and are looking to move to a more challenging training programme with more regular national and/or international competition.

Whatever you or your child's ability, from complete beginner to seasoned athlete, Leweston Academy welcomes all, adopting an all inclusive ethos.
