Michael Hobson
Michael is one of our most popular and endearing in-school coaches. Currently based at St Marys University, Twickenham, and studying Sports Rehabilitation, this 800m and 1500m powerhouse is part of the mighty team Winrow. In his day, coach Winrow ran an incredible 1.45.69 for 800m and under he’s watchful eye Michael has already made huge improvements. Not surprisingly he has recently been snapped up by Kingston and Polytechnic to compete in the British Athletics League, a task which Michael is looking forward to.
In 2009, this devoted Millwall fan and long-standing Bexley AC member, began working on the Special Olympics, Richmond Project. This third Olympic movement has allowed Michael to work with young people with a number of disabilities on a weekly basis. Despite already holding a UKA level 2 coaching qualification and being an Elevating Athletics England Tutor, the opportunity has allowed Michael to develop into an even more remarkable coach than he already is!
There is no question that you will struggle to meet someone with more passion and energy for athletics than Michael. A reliable, dedicated, knowledgeable coach with unlimited enthusiasm.
