IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING TRACK & FIELD
Welcome to the 2025/2026 Track & Field Season!
The first official day of practice is Monday, February 23, 2026, and the season ends at the State Championship on May 16.
Beginning on February 23, mandatory practice is daily (unless you hear otherwise from your coach). All Track & Field athletes are expected to be at practice on this date.
Remember - only athletes and coaches are allowed at practice. Make sure to bring water and wear proper attire.
For practice, we meet at the track (no later than 3:45 p.m.) – dressed and ready to train, unless you hear otherwise from your coach.
Monday, February 23 - Thursday, February 27, check in with Coach Della at the north gate of the track when you arrive for practice. You will then be directed to the appropriate coach.
The duration of practice varies – it depends on the workout each day. We are usually done sometime between 5:00 and 5:30. You are expected to be at practice for the entire duration.
Before athletes can compete in a meet, they must attend 3 practices.
For all high school sports, practice and competing in meets is mandatory during the season.
According to the policy regarding practice in the Jeffco Athlete's Handbook: Team members of all sports are required to attend all scheduled practices and meetings during the established sports season. If circumstances arise whereby the student cannot attend a practice or meeting, the validity of the reason will be adjudged by the individual coach. In all cases, however, the coach must be notified, prior to the practice or meeting missed, by personal contact, phone call, or written statement from the parent or guardian.
_____________________________________________________
Registration will open on Monday, January 19. The registration site will close on Friday, February 20 at 3:30 p.m., so please register asap!

Physical
In order to compete in Track & Field, your athlete will need a current physical. Your physical is valid for one year from the date it is signed by your physician. If your physical expires soon - get one now! CHSAA requires a Pre-evaluation Physical Form be filled out. Page 4 of this document needs to be signed by your doctor and uploaded to your account. Don't forget to take it to your appointment. Detailed instructions are included on the form. Parent and athlete must also sign and date the bottom of the CHSAA form.
Please follow the directions during registration regarding submission of your physical. DO NOT bring a hard copy to the office or email your physical to the office - you must upload it to your registration account.
Can't get into your doctor for a physical?
You can visit the The Little Clinic at the King Soopers on Youngfield in Wheat Ridge.
