CATONSVILLE COUGARS YOUTH TRACK AND FIELD
**Registration for the 2023 Track & Field season is now full. Waitlist requests are no longer accepted. Registration for the 2024 Track and Field season will open in early January. Cross country registration will open this summer.
Come RUN with us!
For girls and boys 8 – 14 years of age (Birth years 2008-2015) who want to experience track and field. Our focus is on continual self-improvement and developing a love for a fitness activity that can last a lifetime. It’s your chance to run, jump, throw and learn a great sport!
Practice Dates: 3 practices per week, Monday, Wednesday, Friday 6:15-7:30pm beginning March 20 and lasting through July (practices finish in June for athletes not competing in districts, regionals and nationals).
Where: Catonsville High School Track (any location changes due to conflicting CHS sporting events will be announced, usually moving practice over to the CCBC Track or Field Hockey Field next to tennis courts @ CHS)
Meets: 2-4 meets per month, most meets are on the weekends, usually Sunday afternoons (Central Maryland). These are open invitational meets, but all levels of experience are welcome. We expect runners to participate in meets, but understand everyone cannot make every meet. Meets will start mid-April and go until late-June with championship meets in July.
Each athlete is responsible for his or her own registration at the meet. The meet registration fees are typically $10 to be paid the Wednesday prior to the meet. A uniform is required at every meet.
Qualifications and Championship meets: The team is an AAU club and will participate in the AAU qualifier events. The team is registered with USATF and athletes interested in USATF qualifiers may participate, but individual USATF membership fees will need to be provided by parents.
