A team consists of four groups - Junior Boys / Girls (grades 5 - 6)(some teams start younger) and Senior Boys / Girls (grades 7 - 8). Running events currently include 50 meter (juniors only), 100 meter, 200 meter, 400 meter, 800 meter, 1200 meter (juniors only) and 1600 meter (seniors only) runs plus a 4 x 100 relay. Field events are the long jump, high jump and shot put (seniors only). Some teams don't have access to high school facilities and consequently don't compete in all field events. The season, which runs from late March through late May, consists of dual/tri meets between individual teams plus the league-sponsored Developmental Meet, Relay Carnivals, and Championship Meet. See the Team Information page for additional information pertaining to development of a new team. |

Relay Handoffs - a Procedure that Works |
There are many ways to work that baton around the track, but some work better than others especially when working with grade school children. This procedure is a good one since it is easy for the kids to understand the basic concepts, and it works in practice as well as theory.
