Cross Country practice is starting soon!

VARSITY PRACTICE– Monday August 21 @ 4:15 p.m. - Please note that high school athletes must attend 10 practices in order to participate in their first meet (tentatively scheduled for Friday 9/1/2017). As such we will have varsity practice Monday 21st through Saturday 26th).

MIDDLE SCHOOL PRACTICE – Tuesday August 22 @ 3:50 p.m.

Please meet with Coach Pearl Ferguson at the concessions stand by the track.

PARENTS - please ensure that your athlete has a current physical on file with the school or available for me on the first day of practice. I cannot let athletes participate in practice without a current physical. Sports participation forms and concussion statements will be available for you to sign at the Back to School Night August 21st @ 5:30 p.m. Also, please remember to pay the extra-curricular activities fee prior to the first meet.

ATHLETES - please come ready to practice dressed in appropriate running apparel and running shoes. Also, bring a water bottle. We will be running on the first day of practice! Any athletes that require an inhaler, please bring those too!

Since we are getting a later start this year I would encourage you to begin running now if you haven’t followed a training plan over the summer. It will help you be ready for the first day of practice and (hopefully) help you not be as sore the first week of practice. Don’t worry about being fast, just put in some miles between now and the first day of practice.

The schedule for cross-country meets is forthcoming and will be posted on the school website when completed.
