Developing Young Athletes in Somerset & helping them to be the best they can be…
Combined Events Coaching
Over the last 6 years Peter has developed a very strong passion for combined events
(multi-
Combined events athletes are truly “awesome” and the “elite “ amongst others in
our sport, competing in anything between 4 events and 10 events, over one or two
days depending on age and gender. Perhaps best known for the heptathlon, 7 events
over 2 days, is retired British athlete Dame Jessica Ennis-
In 2013 Graham Norris and Peter set up The Academy of Combined Events (ACE) to provide
potential combined events athletes with the opportunity to develop a range of basic
fundamental technical event skills in an enjoyable and creative environment. We
work with a range of athletes from school year 6 and above. Our athletes have regularly
achieved podium positions in the Somerset Combined Events Championships. Some have
gone on to represent the County at South West Regional level, and a some have been
selected to represent the County at the English Schools National Combined Events
Championships. For more information, please visit the ACE website -
Peter has particular expertise in heptathlon having managed and coached an athlete to win the senior girls English Schools Combined Events National Championships in 2016. The following year, despite sustaining an injury she was ranked within the top 10 in the UK as a senior lady and 3rd in the UK as an under 23. She then moved away to university where she continues to improve under the guidance of a new coach.
If you are a heptathlete looking for more focused management and training then please contact Peter to discuss your requirements further.
