We have a variety of coaches at Pt Chev Athletics, including Parent Volunteers, Youth Coaches, and Professional Coaches.
For the 25/26 season, we are excited to welcome back super-sprinters Lex Revell-Lewis and Kadin Taylor, who will be coaching at both the Junior and Senior ends, as well as sprint and long jump coach Steve Erkkila and throw coach Savannah Scheen.
Lex is a three-time national champion and one-time Oceania champion, who, in March 2025 become the first Kiwi to run a sub-46 seconds 400m, clocking 45.88 seconds and setting a new national record (breaking a 27 year old record). He has his sights set on the 2028 LA Olympics.
Kadin is also currently setting the track ablaze, and currently holds national titles in both the Junior Men 100m and Junior Men 200m, as well as the Open Men 4x400m relay.
Steve won four national sprinting titles and also made the 1977 World Cup 4x400m team for Oceania. Steve brings huge coaching experience, particularly in sprints and long jump.
Sav is a competitive discus, shot put, javelin and hammer thrower, with an impressive array of national gold, silver and bronze medals to her name. Most recently, she won the bronze medal for discus in the Open Women’s division in 2024.
We are also currently talking to a high jump coach who is keen to do some sessions with our athletes.
