Love Football Manager, Championship Manager or Maxithlon but want something fresh? Athlenet takes exactly what makes those games addictive — scouting, training, tactics, transfers, multi-season progression — and applies it to athletics. Free, online, multiplayer, no download.
On Athlenet you're the manager: you don't run, you lead. You recruit athletes, plan their training, manage form, morale and injuries, negotiate transfers and field your best team. Exactly the Football Manager loop — but with sprinters, jumpers and throwers instead of footballers.
Spot talent, track youth prospects, grab the gem before your rivals do.
Develop each athlete season after season: potential, career curve, specialisation.
Buy, sell, negotiate wages and contracts while managing your budget.
Pick the events, manage fatigue, optimise every competition.
Face real managers across 93 nations, in league and cup.
Build a dynasty, climb the divisions, grow your federation.
Football management is crowded. Athletics is fresh ground: dozens of very different events (sprints, distance, jumps, throws, hurdles, walking, decathlon), each with its own athlete profiles, physiology and strategy. One club juggles an explosive sprinter AND a marathon runner — a management puzzle football simply doesn't offer.
No purchase, no install. Athlenet runs in your browser, on desktop and mobile (installable as an app). Create your club in 30 seconds and join a living game with thousands of clubs and seasons running non-stop.
