Cross Country
Teams
5-8 Grades
Please come join us for our first Cross Country team. If you enjoy running or just getting outside for some exercise consider joining our team. We offer boys 5/6, boys 7/8, girls 5/6 and girls 7/8 opportunity to compete against other CAA (Cathlolic Athletic Association) teams in the fall. We may combine teams if appropriate.
How teams are created
Driven by Enrollment
Teams are driven by enrollment. The more people that enroll, the more teams we can create. I do look at age groups, and try to keep teams within one grade of each other as bodies grow a lot within two years. Sometimes we have to combine teams by grade, sometimes we combine teams by gender.

Sooner the Better
Teams are submitted BEFORE school starts so make sure to sign up in JUNE to insure team availability. Runners can expect up to four events per week. Two to three practices during the week with possible weekend events. We try to have practices either right before school or directly after school. Meet times are set through the CAA (Catholic Athletic Association) and are posted early September. We are looking to conduct one to two other small meets on top of the CAA meet. Practice times will not be know until after school starts. Most people are able to make school sports and club sports work.
