Welcome to Cumberland Valley Middle School Cross Country
Cross country is a fall sport open to boys and girls entering 7th and 8th grade.
PIAA Sports Physicals Required
To try out for the team in the fall, athletes must have a PIAA Sports Physical completed after June 1, 2026 and before the first day of tryouts. All physical information must be uploaded to the Rank One system found on the CV Athletic Trainer website. Information about physicals can be found on the Athletic training website: https://www.cvschools.org/page/physical-formrank-one-information
Summer Running Opportunities
Informal summer runs will be held on Tuesdays and Thursdays starting in July. These runs are open to athletes going into 7th and 8th grade. These sessions are not required, but a chance for athletes to train with coaches and other athletes. Athletes should come prepared in running clothes and shoes and bring their own filled water bottle. If there are thunderstorms or heavy rain, we will NOT meet to run. This will be updated on the website as soon as possible.
Summer dates, times and locations will be updated in June and listed here.
Fall Try-Outs
Tryouts for the team will be held in August (dates to be announced) at Mountain View Middle School. Athletes need to have PIAA Sports Physicals uploaded before trying out. Athletes need to attend both days. As part of tryouts, athletes will run a two-mile course. To make the team, boys must run under 19:00 and girls must run under 20:00.
