Welcome to Spring 2024, OUTDOOR TRACK & FIELD!  I just wanted to get all this very important information out to all athletes and families so that everyone knows the plan for the week and the expectations moving into the season!

  1. Paperwork is required to be completed no later than March 11th.  There will no exceptions beyond March 11th.  Your name must be on the following list in GREEN, NLT than March 11th.  Failure to complete by March 11th will result in removal from the team.  Please confirm your name/Athlete is listed on the list and highlighted in GREEN:  https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/19cG0At0TSCdxMpNEIv9CjdMWDloAVR4QVbc-2LvpyZ4/edit?usp=sharing

  3. Also on the above preseason handout, you can sign up for the Team Remind Text Message App. I would encourage all athletes and parents to sign up for instant communication.
  4. Athletes should always come prepared for either inside or outside practice. If the temperature is below 60 degrees it is required that all athletes wear long pants and long sleeves for the duration of the warm-up.  Athletes may wear shorts and/or short sleeves, if they desire, once the workout starts.
  5. All practices are mandatory and required unless otherwise stated or an absence is approved by a coach. If you are going to miss a practice, you are required to notify a coach.
  6. Please review the team meet schedule and know your availability. If you can not attend a meet, you are required to notify a COACH at least 72 hours prior to a meet.
  7. Team Time Trials on Tuesday, March 12th @ 3:00pm and Wednesday, March 13th @ 12:00pm are required and will act as our team’s try out. As a result of our team being much larger than expected, the events on Tuesday and Wednesday will serve as a way for the coaches to gather data in order to determine who will make the team for the Spring 2024 season.
    • Time Trial/Tryout Schedule:  This link will take you to the schedule of Time Trial Events and the Guaranteed Standards to make the team.
    • We are a aware that these standards are tough.  These are the GAURANTEED marks that get you on the team.  We, the coaches, will use the results from the time trials on Tuesday and Wednesday to determine the rest of the team.

If you have any questions, please let us know!  See you Tuesday night at the parent meeting!
