We will announce who will be invited to compete in the League Championships as soon as I have official registration information from the League on the Championship meet. Most likely this will be Monday the 16th at practice.

Home Meets

• Home meets will be held at the Woodward track. Start times for all meets will be held as close to 3:30 as possible. Start times are different at each school due to different bell schedules and transportation issues. In general, track meets take about 3 hours to complete if everything goes well. About 30 volunteers are needed for each home meet to run events. We greatly appreciate your support! 
• Additionally, a volunteer coordinator is needed. 
• All participants need to stay to the end of the meet to cheer and help clean up
• Check in with a coach before leaving
