The Lightning Spikes Track Club (LSTC) is located in Gwinnett County and has been in existence since August 2008. LSTC is an organization that provides track and field opportunities for youth, ages 6-18. Exceptional athletic ability is not a prerequisite for membership and there are no tryouts; however, membership does require full commitment from parents and athletes. Opportunity for competition is provided but the emphasis is on setting personal goals and training/conditioning to attain those goals.
