1 Week Until Track Starts

We are 1 week away from the start of the 2021 Girls Track and Field season.  Practices will begin on Monday, March 29th, meeting at the track at 3:00pm.  We are finalizing the season schedule for meets, but I have posted what it currently looks like on the right side of the blog.  Please note, however, that this may change often, especially the times and the teams competing against.  This will be a different season then what we have had in the past with the new guidelines and restrictions (which there is a link from the MSHSL below), thus there will be many changes, not only for meets, but for practices as well.  These guidelines from the State will change throughout the season.  If there are any major changes we will let everyone know.  

As we finalize all of the details we will post those as well, but the biggest things that we will want from our athletes this year is to abide by the guidelines to the best of their abilities (especially wearing masks at practice unless they are running and staying more separated and not in big groups), but also to stay positive and do the best that they can.  It will be different, but it is what we have, and as of right now we appear to be ready for a full season, which is better than not having a season this year. We will do what we can, but staying positive and working hard are the two things the athletes will have control over, so those will be our team focus this year.

Here is a link to the guidelines.  We will also be putting our own policies out on the blog as well once we have the final guidelines from the State before the start of the season (this will also change throughout the season): https://www.mshsl.org/sites/default/files/2021-03/mshsl-track-and-field-guidance-and-information-1.pdf

Please remember to go through the registration process soon (see the earlier post on registration).

Thanks and see everyone soon!
