Come run, jump and throw with us in the 2019 Track Season- zero experience necessary! Track is for 5th – 8th grade St. Ignatius students. Practices include sprinting/running mechanics and a blend of high intensity interval training to increase strength, agility and fitness.  Constantly changing drills and intervals make practice fun– we just don’t run in circles!

Get Fast, No Matter Your Interests:  Even if your child doesn’t want to be the next, great Olympic track athlete, SI track teaches kids how to run faster and jump higher for other sports.  We can teach your kids sprint mechanics while building strength and endurance!

Our focus is on having fun, getting fit and improving personal times/distances.

Parent Friendly: The season is short with no out of town travel – 3 practice meets and championships for those who qualify – all at Jesuit.

Practice is immediately after school and generally on school premises.  Kids check into Extended Care immediately after practice if you’re not available for pick up.

Other Sport Friendly: Commitment is minimal.  Come when you can. Leave when you need to. We’ve had multiple kids run track while participating in football, golf, volleyball and sports outside of SI.

Something for Everyone: There’s a great blend of track and field events – the kids can choose new events from meet to meet.  Didn’t like running the 200 meters this week?  Try the long jump next week. From the 1600 meter run to high jump and shot put – no matter your experience or how speedy you are, there’s something for everyone.

When: Tuesday and Thursday 3-4

Where: Blacktop between the gym and the St Ignatius Sports Field
