Masters Athletics in Helsinki
HKV is a club of around 200 masters athletes in track and field, aged between 25-85-years old. In 2022 HKV was the most successful masters athletics club in Finland winning a gigantic trophy for most points gathered in the Finnish Championship competitions. We have athletes who compete on the international level, many who compete on the national level and others who only attend practices and enjoy athletics. We have regular practices in most track and field disciplines: race walking, pole vault, hammer throw, jumping, javelin, sprinting, hurdles and middle distance running.
​
You are welcome to try out our practices before joining the club!
