Training will begin this Thursday September 7th 4:50PM at Spring Forest Middle School Track (14240 Memorial Dr, Houston, TX 77079) you will need to take Memorial Greens to get to the back parking lot if you are driving.

Those who will be walking to practice from Family Point Resources will walk in a group at 4:45PM.

What to wear?
Sports attire: running shorts, light colored t-shirt/tank top and running shoes. (NO Crocs, Slides or Flip-Flops permitted at any practice) You must arrive practice/race ready. NO TRACK SPIKES IN SEPTEMBER

What to bring?
A good work ethic and a positive attitude. Please bring a personal water bottle with your name on it. (No 16oz water bottles from a 24 pack. This creates trash and can lead to spreading sickness/germs)

Tips for Parents:
1) Stay off the infield!!!!
2) Do not hold onto your athletes water bottle
3) Do not hover over your athlete during practice. It’s distracting to everyone. Sit on the stands, in the car or we will see you at 6:00PM.
4) Do not approach Coaches with questions during practice. (Save your questions and introductions for after)
5) Get your child/athlete to every practice. Yes they will be sore, yes they may cry, yes they will complain in the beginning. This is a part of the conditioning process and they need support not impedance.
6) Have your child use the restroom before practice. We do not schedule or have time for restroom breaks.
