2026 Track and Field Team - Join Now!

Track & Field is open to all students in Grades 3–7 (born in 2017 or earlier). This program gives your child the opportunity to explore a variety of track (running) and field (jumping and throwing) events, both individually and as part of a team. In 2025, our team placed 1st at CISVA - a success made possible by the commitment and enthusiasm of our students, staff, and parent community.

Throughout the season, athletes participate in multiple practices and meet opportunities. We gather performance data from both practices and meets to help guide event placement for the CISVA Championship. Regular attendance at practices is essential, as timed runs and measurements are recorded and used in selection decisions. Please review the practice and meet schedule (below) prior to joining the team.

For the CISVA Track & Field Championship, each event is limited to one athlete per school. Coaches will select athletes who consistently attend practices, demonstrate dedication to training, and show strong performance and readiness to represent our school.
