8/16/2021 (Monday) Practice Begins.
*Practice is held from 3:50 to 5:30 Monday through Friday for the month of August and then Monday through Thursday from 3:50 to 5:30 for the months of September and October. (Our last B/C Team practice will be Monday, October 11th. Our final A Team practice will be Wednesday, October 13th).
*Participants must turn in their physical packets to the nurse for approval before practicing.
*Each day, runners must check in with the coach taking roll and complete the daily Covid questionnaire on our Cross Country Google Classroom!
*If you attend practice before submitting your physical, you may watch, but you won't be able to participate.
*We meet outside the weight room at the southwest doors, or inside in the hallways during inclimate weather.
*Runners must attend 9 practices in order to compete.
*In order to be eligible for Cross Country, students must have passed 5 classes during the previous quarter.
*Runners with D's and F's may be asked to attend After-School Academic Support instead of Cross Country practice. Please make sure you are doing your best in your classes so you can avoid missing practices and meets!
*Runners cannot run for another team during the Westridge season or compete in organized races that are not on our team calendar.
*All athletes must return a signed field trip form to ride the buses for meets and an additional signed form to run routes off campus. We will provide these forms on the first few days of practice.
*Runners must wear a mask any time other than when running outdoors or performing a strenuous drill indoors. We will always keep social distancing in mind and stay 3 to 6 feet away from others whenever possible.
*Runners should bring their own water bottle to practice each day and to the meets.
*Runners need to provide their own transportation home from daily practices. You will need to be picked up by 5:30 each day. Please avoid detaining our coaches past that time.
*Runners will need to be picked up at Westridge once our buses return from the meet locations. Please notify your parent before arriving at the school so you can be picked up promptly. Once again, please avoid detaining our coaching staff at the school after our competitions.
*All runners will ride the bus to competitions. If you ride home from a competition with one of your parents, you must check in with one of the coaches, so that you can be signed off on our attendance sheet. If you plan to ride home with another parent who is not your own parent, your parent must send an email to Coach Cameron at cynthiacameron@smsd.org and send a text message to Coach Cameron at 913-201-5531 before 3 pm on the day of the contest in order to be able to do so.
