Must have current physical on file!
All parents/athletes should be on the Remind for Cross Country to receive all important info throughout the season.
All athletes are required to have a current physical on file to compete in any sport at Wiley Middle School. The physical form can be downloaded from the Wiley Middle School athletic home page. The physical is also on the Leander ISD website.

Info
Any student at WMS in 7th or 8th grade, boy or girl, can participate in Cross Country. Runners do not need to be in the athletics class to participate in the cross country. The Cross Country team will practice before school, not during the athletics period. However, if you are already in the athletics period and would like to be on the Cross Country Team, you may do so, even if you are currently playing football or volleyball. The coaches are happy to work around schedules for other Wiley sports.
Team
Everyone who comes out for the Cross Country is on the team, as long as they are able and willing to perform the daily workouts. Athletes cannot miss more than three practices during the season, unless the absence is excused. They will not need to purchase a team t-shirt, but it will be an option. The Cross Country uniform will be provided.
The Meet
A bus will take the runners to the meets. When we take a bus, the bus will leave school between 4 pm and 4:30 pm to go to the meets. Meets start at 5 pm, with the 8th grade girls running first, followed by 8th boys, 7th girls, and then 7th boys. Meets are usually over around 7 pm. Parents will need to pick up their athlete from each meet.
