About Us

Over the past 12 months, MAF have pro-actively secured small amounts of external funding i.e. through England Athletics. This funding has enabled MAF to deliver strategic objectives of its development plan and club audit. MAF is committed through the development plan to achieving its vision to ‘ensure every individual has an equal opportunity to reach their potential and supported to start, stay and succeed in athletics’, with the following key aims and objectives:-

  • To develop the provision, quality and quantity of people engaging in athletics in Merseyside.
  • To develop and improve the all round quality of provision of athletics in Merseyside with a specific focus on club development.
  • To actively seek external funding to deliver athletics based initiatives throughout Merseyside.
  • To work with and build on the already established strong relationships with key external partners such as CSP’s, LA’s and SSP’s.
