How many times a week will practices be “run”?

We will meet twice a week for in-person sessions for the Development Program, and three times a week for Competitive. However, we will also provide a general program encouraging kids to run on their own time one or two other times.

Are your coaches certified?

All of our coaches are registered with Athletics Ontario and have completed Athletics Ontario SafeSport and Respect in Sport training. In addition, our head coach is an NCCP certified coach. All active coaches are working towards furthering their NCCP certification levels.

What ages will be able to join?

In alignment with the school cross-country programs, our program will start with children in grade 3 through high school. We also encourage parents and adults to join in the fun!

Will there be races?

Our Competitive program will be focussed on the Athletics Ontario race series for Track in the Spring, and XC in the fall. We will also encourage athletes to compete in local road and trail races. Races for the Development group are optional.
