General Information
The XC season starts early - the first full week of school. Runners MUST have a current physical form, concussion form, and cardiac arrest form uploaded to Dragonfly by the first day of school in order to practice. Now is the time to schedule that physical. Do not wait! Physical Forms are due August 10th.
The deadline to join XC is August 1st. Due to the early XC season, only runners who have participated in summer practice will make the team. No walk- ons please.
All physical forms and instructions to upload to Dragonfly can be found on the Athletics main page (look for "physicals" link).
We run a 2 mile course, so we want our runners in shape and ready to go as soon as school starts!
Summer Practice:
Summer practices are optional but strongly encouraged. Since our season begins at the start of the school year, we will be taking attendance and basing our XC team on summer participation.
You can access the summer schedule through the Remind app. If you are a 6th grader, please text 81010 @k8ha6c9; if you are a 7th/8th grader, please text 81010 @6b42a37. We start summer practices the week of June 10th. A Remind App message will come out the Sunday before.
AUGUST 11th is our first day of practice at school. We start at 7:00 AM sharp. Runners should be dropped off at the gym door. We practice Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays.
On Saturdays, we are at Fowler Park Soccer fields at 8:00 am.
All 6th-8th graders are welcome to join, boys and girls! There are no try-outs unless we have over 80 runners. REMEMBER: Deadline to join is the first day of school.
Stay-in-Touch!
