SWC Preview

SWC PREVIEW Information (slightly updated from what was sent Tuesday):

  • We will be taking two buses from TROY Saturday morning at 7 a.m.
  • We should return to TROY around 11:15 a.m. We will have athletes call and we'll send a TEAM REACH text to be picked up so parents do not have to wait.
  • Please remember to pick up your child in a timely manner as coaches have to wait for every athlete to be picked up.
  • All BOYS run at 9 a.m.
  • All GIRLS run at 9:30 a.m.
  • Bring uniform, apparel, running shoes AND spikes (if you have them). You will only wear your spikes for the race. Also, you might want to bring sandals to wear afterward, as your feet, socks, and shoes could be wet. It’s a much better ride home if your feet are dry. Bring a cell phone, water, sports drink (just one), and a healthy snack.
  • Remember, if you wear compression shirts, shorts, or just regular shirts/shorts underneath your uniform, it has to be BLACK! Try to make sure your shirts/shorts are a solid color (black). 
Avon Meet (PARENTS):
  • The course will be held at 3701 Veterans Memorial Parkway Avon, OH 44011
  • Parents, we will have a QR code to be scanned by your phone. Each coach will have a clipboard with the code so you can scan your child out from the meet (instead of signing out your child). We'll cross-check this after the meet but hopefully this is easier & quicker for everyone.
  • We would like all athletes to stay for both races, if possible, so they can cheer on their teammates. We want all Avon Lakers to get cheered on through the end of their races. 
  • Because of this, if parents could wait to sign out athletes until AFTER both races, this will allow the coaches to watch the races and support all runners. Once both races are completed, you can sign out your child with coaches at the finish line or at camp.
  • Avon is requesting one parent volunteer per team. We should have two coaches at the finish line to help out, but one coach will probably be recording our times/collecting athlete cards and the other coach will be signing athletes out. If anyone is interested in helping out let us know at camp tomorrow!
