What did we learn on our first meet at Conner JV (3/21) this week? Even if the weather is nice or warm when the meet starts, it will get cold. Athletes need to keep this in mind and read the page on the blog page labeled "Track Protocol".
These two middle school athletes had the right idea and prepared correctly. All runners should have extra tops/bottoms, hats, and extra layers in his bag.
Arrive early, most meets start at 4:45, arrive at 3:45. Long jumpers, high jumpers, hurdlers, and 4x800 relays should always get to the meet with enough time to warm up before the track is closed. Everyone else should arrive at 5PM. Find your team and enjoy hanging out together.
Notice the spirit wear. Our official warm-up shirt for the team is the Team25 shirt. Pack that shirt for every meet.
Cheer the competitors, from both the boys and the girls teams. We are one team. Great camaraderie on such a long meet. Don't worry parents, most meets are not this long.
