The Danbury Lightning Indoor Track and Field offers boys and girls ages 5 through 15 the opportunity to get into great condition while learning about and competing in Track and Field.  Practices are designed to help athletes reach their potential in a fun and competitive environment.  Practices are held for the Spring and Summer on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM at Danbury High School. The Indoor Season practice will change to Wednesdays and Fridays from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM, typically after our first meet.  Indoor practices are held at The Harambee Youth Center, 54 West St. in Danbury. Meets are typically on Sunday Mornings from 8:00 AM and can sometimes last as late as 4:00 PM.

Coaches work with athletes in small groups on Shot Put, Discus, and Javelin as needed to ensure that they are prepared for competition.  We desire to build character, self-esteem, teamwork, and leadership skills in our athletes.

We have three seasons, Spring, Summer, and Winter (Indoor).  The Spring Season begins in March and ends in early June. Our Middle School Athletes will have an opportunity to compete in the Middle School State Championship by meeting the qualification Standards.  At the end of the spring season, we usually have a team gathering where we recognize athletes for their accomplishments during the season.  Each athlete is recognized for their participation with a certificate, with outstanding accomplishments being recognized with medals.
