Ultimate Athletics was founded in 2015 by Lisa Campbell

Ultimate Athletics is not a multi-sport provider. Athletics is it! The name 'Ultimate' reflects the goals for the academy, as being THE final destination for everything encompassing effective and professional provision for athletes, namely:

Expert coaching from former and current International athletes from U.K, Wales, USA, South Africa, Ethiopia and Kenya.
Grassroots Athletics through our fun and energetic Tots programmes.
Multi-disciplined Youth Sessions, finding your strengths and nurturing them.
Specialized sessions for Teens and Adults with expert coaches for each discipline.
Elite sessions, 1-2-1, Strength and conditioning, video feedback and the latest modern equipment.

The practical aspect is the major element of a performance, but to truly understand how to improve, we need to break down the skill and study the biomechanics of the movement. At our events we provide injury prevention and treatment services from our partners at Valiant Clinic. We educate athletes via theory workshops from our Sports Science qualified coaches, nutritionists and physiotherapists. We welcome International guest speakers and former Olympic athletes to inspire the next generation and have formed a partnership with IMG Academy in Florida and Sports Ed USA to provide important pathways and opportunities to our athletes. This training all takes place at our Media-room in Dubai Sports City.

So Ultimate Athletics trains, we educate; Ultimate Athletics now need to compete! Every month from October to May Ultimate Athletics host monthly Ultimate Racenights, sponsored by New Balance, the only Open Athletics League in the UAE, giving their members great competition and a reason to train! We have various locations such as Dubai Sports City, Gems Dubai American Academy, New York University Abu Dhabi and Gems Modern Academy Nad Al Sheba. Ultimate Athletics encourages nationwide competition, actively seeking new opportunities for our athletes to shine. Events that the teams are proud to participate in include our NYU Abu Dhabi open meets, The Dubai Marathon, The Dubai Women's Run, NAS events, The Presidents Cup and the Dubai Fitness Fest. Our Athletes can be selected to compete for Local Athletics clubs and are currently representing Al Ahli and Al Wasl.
