Grade 8 Boy's Soccer Wrap-up

Hi team, 

Our season has come to close, and I think everyone would agree, a little to soon. We played a good team from Dr. Marion Hilliard middle school who took advantage of their opportunities when they were presented and on this day, were superior. However, despite the loss, I hope you all enjoyed your time on the pitch. We had a great tournament which will hopefully give you some good memories to look back on in the future. Go Panthers!!

More Cross Country News...

Great Job this past week everyone! There are some incredible overall results and many personal best times. We are so proud of everyone -- you have strived to do your best and pushed yourself to achieve your goals. Congratulations! There is still more time to improve. Please try to come to all your practices this week...remember that we will meet on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday mornings. 

We hope you're getting excited to head to Thomson Park... 

So far, over 80 runners have qualified for the meet or have expressed interest in the Fun Run. 

If you have qualified for the 1st meet or are coming to Thomson Park to try out the Fun Run, bring your permission forms back Monday OR Tuesday of this week. Please make sure you hand them into to one of your coaches!

Check out the link below for race day schedules, course maps, chip timing, and more! 

Cross Country  

Starting Tuesday, our running route will be flipped. We will be starting at the corner of Edge Park and Victoria Park. Grade groups will be taking turns at the new starting line as they make their way up the hill for the first leg of the race, similar to that of the route at Thomson  Park. 

Due to our efforts to avoid the soccer field because of practices and tournaments starting this week, our new route will be shy of 1km (approx.840m) (see rough estimate map below). 

DRIVERS NEEDED!  About 20 drivers will be needed to make this day happen. As we collect forms this coming week, we will start to get a better idea of who is going with whom. Parents, please be sure to indicate your email address so we can reach out to you personally. Those who indicate they can be a volunteer driver will get a driving form on Monday or Tuesday. Please look out for this form and be sure to complete and return it to your coaches by Wednesday! 

RUNNING Club NEWS

This info below is coming home today! 

Running Club and Cross Country

RUNNING club will continue until the end of October. All participants who do not qualify for the cross country meet are encouraged to continue coming to morning practice to further help reach their goals. ALL competitors who are going to the meet, including Fun Runners, must be coming to all practices. We are aware there are at times, conflicts with other sport practices and we are able to give exceptions to those athletes. 

Cross Country Update

Hello runners and families, this update is regarding our transportation for the first meet, Oct 10th. 

At this time, we have still not secured bussing.  With two weeks to go this may change. However, if bussing cannot be secured, parents will be responsible for the safe arrival/departure of their child(ren) before and after their race. At this time we are exhausting all avenues and will update the blog if the situation changes.
