Velodrome Programme

From October 2025 to June 2026, Glasgow secondary school pupils can take part in track cycling sessions at the Sir Chris Hoy Velodrome. 

Schools select confident cyclists from S2 – 6 to join the programme, where groups of up to 10 pupils attend four weekly, 45-minute coached sessions. The ability of each pupil is recorded by the track coaches with the aim of pupils achieving accreditation – there are 4 levels to achieve, with the skill level increasing each time. 

Pupils who show strong interest or skill are encouraged to continue training through local community club sessions, signposted by the track coaches from the venue.
