Team Pictures Tuesday

As we get going with our 4th week of the season we start to get ready for our first meet of the season, Thursday at CRHS vs. Centennial.  The meet will start at 3:45 and will be a Normal Schedule of Events (please see the right side of the blog as well as below for this order of events).  I will send out more details about the meet as we get closer mainly due to the fact that the weather is not looking the best as of right now, but want to be closer to the start before a decision is made.

Before we do get to Thursday's meet, though, we will be having our Team Pictures on Tuesday at the beginning of practice, 3:00.  We know that there is no school due to the ACT Testing, but we are still planning practice, so rides will need to be figured out for those that will not be at school.  Below is information from David Banks Studios on how to opt in to purchase individual and/or the team picture.  The uniforms that the Girls just checked out on Thursday will need to be worn.  Pending the weather, we are hoping to take the pictures out at the Track, but may need to move into the Field House, which we have had to do in the past.

Week of March 28th

A couple of announcements as we get going on the 3rd week of the season.  No meets yet this week, but a couple of items of importance.  With the weather we are predicted to have this week, we need to make sure that everyone has clothing for both inside and outside.  If there is anyone that is having troubles putting together enough clothing to go outside, please let me know.  Kennedy, one of our captains, put together a clothing drive for those who may need workout clothes on our team, so we have a wide variety clothing option.  To go with this, we have an unwritten rule that if it is under 50 degrees outside and we are practicing outside, that long sleeves or a jacket and long pants are needed.  Looking at the weather for the week, I would say Monday and Friday most of the team will be outside, so please be ready for outside practices and appropriate clothing.

We as a team are not scheduled for the field house after school this week.  We were not scheduled until 7:00pm, but we are still practicing at 3:00pm, after school as usual, but those that are planning to pole vault this year can come in at 7:00 using Door 16 in order to practice indoors.  If any of the other field event groups decide to use the field house one day, we will let everyone know.

Thursday at the end of practice we will be handing out uniforms. Please make sure that these are taken care of and that they are cleaned on a regular basis.

If there are any questions, please let me know,
Thanks,
Denny

Week of March 21

Practice on Monday, March 21st will start at 2:45 in the Mezzanine.  We will be scheduled until 5:00 in the field house, but some groups and workouts may extend beyond a little bit. Then, for the rest of the second week of the season, practices will be starting at 3:00 for those at the high school and those that are in middle school will join in as soon as they get out of school and get ready (they will not miss any workouts or parts of workouts).  

One other item of note, we will get workouts done in time for those that need to take the activity buses (which we will have passes for), but we DO have practices on Friday and ALL athletes are expected to be at these practices as well.  Transportation will be more of a challenge with no activity buses, but we are a 5 day a week program, so please set up rides before Friday comes along.

Thanks and any questions, please let me know,
Denny

Monday is the First Day of Practice

Please remember that tomorrow, Monday the 14th, is the first day of practice for Track and Field, enter through Door 16, the back of the school!!  Please make sure you are signed up before you attend practice and then that we would like for you to be in the mezzanine by 2:45 to get going.  Practice is from 3:00-5:00, Monday through Thursday this week, with event coaches deciding for Friday.  If there are any questions, please let me know,

Thanks

Denny

Season Starting Soon!!

2022 Coon Rapids

Girl’s Track and Field 

All Girls that are wanting to test themselves and have the chance to compete in 18 different events, then consider signing up for the Coon Rapids Girls Track and Field Team!  We are a program that can have athletes from 7^th through 12^th grades.  No experience needed, just a desire to work hard and to see what you are made of.

When: Season starts on March 14^th at 3:00pm in the Mezzanine at the high school area near the Field House.  Please be there by 2:45!

When and How to sign up: You are able to sign up now. Please go to the Lock and Key on the AHSchools web site or through the CRHS web site.  There is also a link on the right side of our blog page.  You must be signed up before you can come to practice and you also must have an up to date physical on file.  Middle School athletes need to have a copy sent over to the Activities Secretary at CRHS.

Be prepared to work hard on the first day and come dressed for running.  If you are planning on running distance, be ready to run outside (warm clothes), as well as inside.  If you are a sprinter, be ready to run inside (shorts, shirts, etc.).  Throwers, jumpers and vaulters, expect to be inside.  Make sure you have something to Run/Workout in for shoes.

We will try to have a parent meeting shortly after the season begins.  We will go over the season, the Parent Handbook, fundraising and any other questions parents have. We will let you know when this will be.
