Elementary Cross Country

Elementary Cross Country 

The elementary Cross Country team is available for athletes in 1st grade through 6th grade.   The program is an excellent introduction to Cross Country Running and an opportunity to compete against other teams (and yourself) in organized races.  During the season we work to improve overall fitness, develop endurance and discuss the importance of sleep and nutrition.  We do this by running the trails at Terrace Oaks, practicing  running specific drills, and playing LOTS of running based games!    Our goal is to send the young athletes home tired and ready for bed!  See the brochure here. 

We will once again be offering two summer camps.  You can see more information about these here. 

The season runs from August 17th to the first week of October.  Practices are generally Monday evenings at Terrace Oaks East from 6 - 7:15.   Meet days vary, but are usually on Thursday evenings at 6PM and are located at various schools/ parks in the South of the River Area.   You can see the tentative fall schedule here.
