Stade Rennais Athletics

What Stade Rennais Athletics does

Stade Rennais Athlétisme (SRA) is a French non-profit athletics association (association loi 1901) headquartered at 13 rue Zacharie Roussin in Rennes, Brittany, operating under the French Athletics Federation (FFA). The club delivers structured athletics programming across all major disciplines — running, jumps, throws, and combined events — to participants from age 4 through elite international level, and runs four affiliated local sections (Asphalte Guipel, CS Betton, EA Chartres de Bretagne, Pacé en Courant) across Ille-et-Vilaine.

The club's product surface spans competitive athletics training for youth and senior athletes, the Athlé Santé health/wellness section (nordic walking, fitness, certified sport-health programs for chronic-condition participants), and a portfolio of proprietary branded events — Roazhon Run (public running), Roazhon Perche (pole vault), and Roazhon Challenge Entreprise (corporate team-building). Coaching is delivered by FFA-certified trainers including a former Beijing 2008 Olympian, and the club's home venue is the Stade Robert Poirier indoor arena. Athlete outcomes include Olympic representations at Beijing 2008, London 2012 and Paris 2024, plus medal wins at French national championships.

Revenue is generated through annual individual memberships (€212/year for one weekly class, €307/year unlimited), event registration fees for Roazhon Run, Roazhon Perche and Roazhon Challenge Entreprise, Athlé Santé subscriptions, club boutique merchandise, and local partnership/sponsorship support. Distribution is via the monclub.app self-serve registration platform plus in-person registration at Stade Robert Poirier; marketing relies on the club's Joomla website, social media (Facebook, Instagram), earned media through competition results, and Athlé TV streaming of major events. Governance is led by an elected bureau headed by President Nicolas Jolivet.
