Reservoir Track & Field Families,
I wanted to try and put everything in one place for you.
This is one of the most important weekends of the entire season for our Program.
With more than 2400 athletes, more than 5500 entries and a new meet record of 95 schools, we need every family to support the Track & Field Program.
Everyone needs to be a contributing member to the Gator Invite and Emerging Elite Invite.
We are sorry for any inconvenience caused by the moving of the Emerging Elite Invitational. As you can see, it was the right call, and the meet is still looking to be super awesome!
We know that this move can cause a change in schedule for parents and athletes. We are asking that you do everything possible to be there, help and support. We will be starting the meet an hour earlier so that we can end the meet at a decent time since it is a school night.
Here is what we need and what is expected:
- We need volunteers to work events, help with the meets, work the concession stand, etc.
IF YOU CAN NOT VOLUNTEER, please donate. FIND A WAY to support the team.
- We need donations. Food Items for bake sale, breakfast, and dinner for coaches/officials.
- If you are competitor in the meet, please make sure you are there a minimum of 90 minutes prior to the scheduled start time of your event.
- Athletes and Parents, please remember that myself and the coaching staff are trying to host/manage and direct the biggest meet in the state of Maryland. Utilize the athletes and parents who have been a part of the team for a number of years.
- We will not tolerate athletes not doing their part and supporting the team.
- Athletes DO NOT LEAVE the meet without checking in with a coach.
Sign Up Genus Links: You can sign up to volunteer and donate all through the links. They are on the front page of the Website: https://xctf.rhsgators.com/track/
Meet Information: Schedules, heat sheets, etc. The most update to date heats sheets can be found on the live results link. I’ll post a final copy of the heat sheets on our website tonight. https://xctf.rhsgators.com/track/track-field-meet-information-page/
FINALLY, with 165 members on the team, it is impossible for every athlete to compete at the Emerging Elite and/or the Gator Invitational. Please remember that the Invitational meets are for the Varsity athletes. If you did not make it into either of the meets this year, please use that as motivation for next year. Please don't confront a coach at practice or send emails/text messages to coaches in a defensive or argumentative manner. We want the best for everyone and we specifically look for meets and opportunities for athletes to compete.
