THE SHORE ATHLETIC CLUB
Our History
The Shore AC's official birth year is 1934. The club went through its earlier eras of the 30s and 40s marked by some incredible feats - began anew in the late 40s and endured to the early 50s. In 1964, the "new" Shore AC was born and we've been doing so many great new things ever since. We have over 500 members. In addition to competing in major events, the club itself puts on an incredible array of events for all to take part in and enjoy to the utmost. Shore A.C. hosts four signature events a year – NJ International T&F Meet, Big Bang Mile, Asbury Park Sheehan Classic and the Jersey Shore Half Marathon. Additionally, Shore A.C. supports training athletes to compete in certified youth, open and masters USATF events and Long Distance Races nationally and internationally through-out the year. They have a competitive and strong presence at the Millrose Games, Penn Relays, and National & State USATF championship events. Shore A.C. proudly sent a handful of athletes to the 2021 Olympic Trials!!
