ABOUT US – PIONEERS ATHLETICS CLUB

Faster. Higher. Longer.

Pioneers Athletics Club is one of Dominica’s leading youth track and field clubs, committed to developing disciplined, confident, and competitive young athletes who are prepared to represent themselves, their families, their communities, and Dominica with pride.

Founded with the vision of creating opportunities for young people through athletics, the club provides structured training, mentorship, discipline, and competitive exposure for athletes across various age groups and performance levels.

Our goal is not simply to produce winners on the track, but to build strong, focused, and responsible young men and women who can succeed in every area of life.

OUR MISSION

Our mission is to identify, train, mentor, and develop young athletes in Dominica so they can compete successfully at school, national, regional, and international levels while becoming disciplined and responsible citizens.

We believe athletics is a powerful tool for personal development, leadership, and national pride.

OUR LEADERSHIP

Pioneers Athletics Club is led by Cedric Harris, a respected athletics coach, mentor, and former Olympian who represented Dominica on the international stage.

His leadership is built on discipline, consistency, preparation, and belief in the potential of Dominican youth.

Through his coaching and mentorship, athletes are encouraged to work hard, stay focused, respect others, and always strive for excellence both on and off the track.

Every athlete represents more than themselves—they represent their family, their school, their village, their club, and their country.
