Team Philosophy
The Kelvin Track & Field team emphasis is on self-improvement. We stress the importance of always doing your best and then trying to improve it. We work hard to help all our athletes achieve their best performance. Elite athlete or beginner, they are all treated the same.
The will to win means nothing without the will to prepare!
Is regular attendance important?
Yes!! It is very important. Fitness cannot be stored. You start to lose fitness in 48 hours if the body is not stressed again. How important is parent support? CRITICAL! Parents need to encourage their child to be active. They can offer support by ensuring their child gets enough sleep in order to get up early each day to come to practice rested. Fees/Fundraising The fee for the 2022-2023 season will be $100 ( $50 team fee & $50 fundraising fee). If the cost will cause any financial hardship please contact me, I would never want anyone to miss the opportunity to be on the team because money was the issue. Uniforms Each team member must purchase a uniform. The cost is $65. Other team clothing is also available at additional cost. What equipment will my child need? Shoes for running, a team uniform and a warm-up suit (sweat shirt & pants). The runners should be comfortable and provide adequate cushioning. |
