RUBY BRIDGES CROSS COUNTRY 2022
BE PART OF THE TEAM!!!
Parents and Runners,
Here we go again! Dust off those running shoes and get your students signed up. Cross Country is open to all Ruby Bridges’s students in grades 3-5. Our coaching philosophy is to encourage physical fitness, promote good sportsmanship, support “Team Ruby Bridges”, and of course, have fun running…
Practices: We will have practice on Monday mornings in the Gym starting Sept. 26th from 8:30- 9:10. Drop off starts at 8:30. Please have student(s) remain in cars until adult supervision is present. Students will need to be dropped off in the front of the school, same location as parent drop off. (Please be prompt as we will not be in the gym shortly after practice begins) After practices students will be dismissed to school. At the practice we will go on our course and go over what the students can do on their own in order to improve on their XC skills over the season. We know that practice times may cause a conflict. If your student needs to miss a practice that will not make them ineligible for the meet.We ask students to show up to as many of these practices as possible.
Meets: Meets begin at 4:45 and are generally over by about 5:30. Each race is done by age and division. Order of races will be determined by the host school. The distance is approximately 1/2 mile. You may leave the meet as soon as your child is done with their race and has recorded their finishing place. Please remember to sign out your child at our home events. Students should stay and come to the gym immediately after school for HOME meet (10/4).
Parents are responsible for any child requiring medication in case of an emergency.
Transportation: Each student is responsible for providing their own transportation to and from the meets. We encourage car-pooling if possible to give all students the opportunity to participate.
If your child needs a ride please have them arrange this with one of their teammates prior to the day of the meet and send a note to school on the day of the meet.
