Hello, Tigres Families!
The 1st Annual Austin Gambill Memorial Track Meet (formerly known as the practice meet) is >36 hours away! Hopefully your young athlete has signed up for a full array of events!
Please talk to your athletes and find out what events they signed up for. Hurdlers, High Jumpers, and Shot Putters – are all up first for this meet! They should arrive by 8 at the very latest to prepare. Everyone else should show up by 8:30 to help kick it off and cheer on their teammates. It is a fast-paced event, twice as fast as an official meet. For the order of events, the call sheet can be found on the Tigres Website on the splash page.
A few things to remember:
**I recommend a unique small gym or duffel bag for your athlete to hold sun block, water, and eventually warmup, sweatclothes, jackets, hats, etc with the instruction to use it for storage while on the field! Items thrown in a pile on the field are often left… in pile on the field.
**Water only inside the fence – food or other beverages must be left in the stands for consumption.
**Only Coaches, Active Volunteers, and Athletes are permitted inside the fence!
**Get comfortable, make/meet some friends, and settle in to cheer on our Tigres! Full track meets are non-stop action… that will take most of the day.
This is gonna be fun!!!
