The New Forest Runners Club was formed in September 1981 to encourage and support running for pleasure and as a means keeping fit.The objective of the Club today is the promotion of community participation in healthy recreation in particular by the provision of facilities for amateur athletics.  The New Forest Runners Club caters for all ages and all abilities and everyone from serious marathon runner to casual jogger is equally welcome.

The New Forest Runners Club Headquarters are situated at Fawcett's Field, New Milton. We have the use of a 400 metre grass track and floodlit 900 metre trim trail. We are also very fortunate in being able to train on Sundays (and Tuesdays April-October) in the beautiful New Forest, meeting at Wilverley Plain. We have a Forestry Commission permit, renewable each year allowing us to train in the Wilverley Inclosure area.

New Forest Runners are affiliated to :- UKA, AAAE, SEAA, and HAA.
