Track and Field:

Buckle in: lots of important info!

-Congratulations to all those who qualified and good luck tomorrow! For those who did not make the championship this year, take pride in the effort, dedication, and improvement you showed throughout the season. There were many outstanding performances and results to celebrate. Keep working hard, stay committed, and come back ready to compete again next year!

-The final list of athletes attending the Championship Meet on Wednesday has been posted on the athletics board.  If you are an alt, you must still attend, however, you are not guaranteed to compete.  If any athlete would like to pull out of an event, let Mrs C know immediately so that the next athlete on the list can attend instead. If there seems to be an error, see Mrs C right away.

-You do not have to come to UVic for the whole day, but be sure to be there at least 30 min before your scheduled event.

-Also posted on the athletic board is the list of people requiring a ride, indicated on your permission form you gave back. If there are any changes, again, let Mrs C know right away so that proper rides can be arranged.

-If anyone would like to practice their event today at lunch, let Mrs C know by NB and she will head out with you at lunchtime. If no one lets her know, she will attend her staff meeting.  You are always welcome to practice on your own on the track or at the long jump pit as well.
