Hi Everyone. Wanted to send you an update on the Track season for the weeks ahead. Conditioning has gone very well - the kids are doing well and improving each day, and beginning to really understand what it will take to have a successful season. Next week we will begin our normal practice schedule M-F 3:20 - 4:30, Varsity athletes may be expected to stay later some days but we will try to let them know in advance when this will occur.
Our schedule has been posted online (www.shorecrest.org then look for schedules under Athletics) and you can visit our blog - http://shorecresttrack.blogspot.com/ - for team updates and information. We will have a parent meeting Wednesday, February 10th immediately following practice to discuss all the details of the season.
Our first meets are Middle Division - February 16th (Northside Christian 4PM) and Varsity - February 19th (Keswick Christian 4PM). All athletes are required to attend every practice, unless they are still participating in a winter sport. If for some reason (Club sport, school activity, appointment, etc.) your child will not be at practice, the coaches must be notified in advance. Please note that the number of entries for each event is limited to 4 or 5. Therefore participation in meets, especially at the Middle Division level, is directly related to attendance and participation at practice, not necessarily performance. Also, there may be some opportunities for Middle Division athletes to participate at the Varsity level. We will approach these opportunities individually, however, if this is something you think your child may be interested in, please let us know.
We are still in need of team parents - ideally 2 for each team. If this is something you might be willing to try, please email me ASAP. As always, feel free to contact us with any specific needs or concerns. We are looking forward to a great season!
