Reminder Parents Please: walk outside the fence around the track while practice is going on.

Eating and Drinking at a track meet. It is important that your athlete eats and drinks while at a track meet. Food should be light (such as turkey or chicken sandwiches etc.. fresh fruit and vegetables are also great foods, drinks should be water or sports drinks like Gatorade. Avoid sugary drinks such as soda, and energy drinks like Red bull. Other items such as candy, snow cones and ice cream should be avoided until after competition. This will help avoid the "Sugar High" and the "Sugar Crash"

Relays Many parents are wondering about the composition of the relay teams. Here is a brief guideline of how coaches assemble the teams:

  1. Athletes must Sign up at practice for the relay
  2. They must attend at least 2 practices a week
  3. All coaches have mandatory relay practice on Thursday.
  4. The faster times in the 100m and 400m will be considered for the A-Team
  5. Athletes meeting all of the above criteria will also be selected based on how well they work together with the relay team at coach’s discretion.

If there are any questions please contact Elaine Bingham or your age group coach at practice.
