The season is approximately two and one half months in length. The season may start as early as the end of February and ends with the state competition in the middle of May. The track team is comprised of students in grades sixth through eighth with no “cutting” of participants. Schools participating in a meet are limited to the number of participants per event. The limit per event is determined by the number of schools participating. At the conclusion of the events, exhibition events may be conducted if the schools agree and time permits. A monthly practice schedule will be distributed to the players. A track uniform is provided for each participant. Participants are responsible for purchasing sweats and track shoes. Students are subject to both the Academic and Conduct Eligibility.
