Dear 12U Parents and Athletes,
Now, we look forward to our third regular season meet against the United Track Club, one of the new teams to VCYTC, in Westlake this Saturday, March 22nd. The meet will be held at:
Westlake High School
100 Lakeview Canyon Rd
Thousand Oaks, CA 91362
Event Sign-up: Most athletes signed up for their events Yesterday. They can also sign up for track meet events on Wednesday at practice.
I know a lot of people are out of town for Spring Break!
If your athlete will not attend the next meet, please have them let a coach know so that we can sign them up as not attending.
If your athletes plan to participate but are not able to attend practice on Wednesday this week, feel free to email or text me with their event choices by Wednesday evening.
Relays: If athletes want to run relays, it really helps if they are at specialty practice on Tuesday and Thursday. If an athlete signs up for a relay, their attendance is crucial, and we expect them to participate in the relay they signed up for. The 4×100 is one of the first events in the morning, so you must be on time. Athletes who are late checking in could be dropped from a relay team and replaced by another athlete. Athletes who commit to running a relay should be considerate of other team members who are relying on them to participate in the relay.
No Water Cups at meet: United has adopted an eco-friendly, no cup policy for post-race water on the field. There will be water available, but athletes will need to bring their own water bottles to get a refill.
Lost and Found: Many athletes are leaving their belongings behind without labels. We have a lost and found container in the shed. If your athlete is missing something, please check the container. To help us return items more efficiently, please label all your kids’ clothes and belongings.
No practice next week: As a reminder there will be no practice next week (March 24 & 28) due to the Ventura Unified School District Spring Break, but we will have a home meet on Saturday, March 29
If you have any questions, feel free to call or email me.
Coach Jim
