Spring sports and activities have been suspended until April 18.  This means high school coaches (for sports both in and out of season) cannot hold practice and teams may not compete beginning Friday, March 13, 2020.  

The coaches spoke with the athletes at practice today, and gave them workouts to do to stay in shape during this period, assuming it is safe to do so. 

We’ll send an email as information becomes available. 

Stay healthy and we’ll see you in a few weeks!

Jumpers - see 

The first official day of practice is Monday, March 2.  All Track and Field athletes are expected to be at practice on this date.  Practice begins at 3:15 p.m. in the small gym.  After March 2, distance athletes will meet in room N103 and Sprinters, Throwers, and Jumpers will meet in the large gym.

The duration of practice varies – it depends on the workout each day.  We are usually done around 4:30 each day, but sometimes it’s closer to 5:00, but sometimes it’s earlier than 4:30.  You are expected to be at practice for the entire time.

We have practice every day - attendance is mandatory.

Interested in joining the Arvada West Track & Field Team?  Come see Coach Moore in Room N103 after school.  Have questions regarding Track & Field?  Send an email to della.moore@jeffco.k12.co.us.  Please do not contact the office at Arvada West.

If you would like to receive emails regarding Track & Field, please send an email to della.moore@jeffco.k12.co.us with your contact information.  We use Twitter to disseminate important information to the team.  We highly recommend that athletes and parents follow us on Twitter at ArvadaWestTF.

We are having pre-season practice now.  We recommend that you attend pre-season practice if you are not competing in a winter sport at Arvada West.  It's easier to come into the season in shape, rather than spending the season getting into shape.  For throw and jump events, we recommend that you attend sprint practice on days you are not with your field event coach.  For all events, practice might be held outside - dress for the weather.  See pre-season schedules below:

Distance - everyday after school in Room N103.

Sprints and Jumps - everyday after school.  Meet on the Cat Walk (hallway above the Commons).

Throws - Wednesdays (4:00 - 5:00 p.m.) and Fridays (3:30 - 4:30).  Meet in the gym.
