NEW Athlete Requirement: Lindsay's Law

Athletes are required to complete the following NEW requirement (as of two years ago) for all Avon Lake athletics: Lindsay's Law.

Please visit the following link: LINDSAY'S LAW, read the directions, watch the video, then print, sign, and return the form to the coaching staff! We'll document that each athlete has completed the requirement, then turn it in to the Athletic Department at Learwood.

Thanks for your cooperation regarding Lindsay's Law!

Conditioning Sessions: July 22nd - July 31st

Cross Country Conditioning begins Monday, July 22nd and will go through Wednesday, July 31st. We will meet from 8:30-10 a.m. at the ALHS Track (meet at the caboose). Please wear clothes suitable for practice (you might get dirty), running shoes, and water! We will still remain on campus (or Kopf Reservation) for these sessions. We will meet Monday-Friday the first week, then Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday the following week. Our first official day of practice will be Thursday, August 1st.

If you cannot make it to a session, that's okay! We know families' schedules vary at this time of year. However, if you can't make it to a session, make sure you are running on your own. I'm attaching general running times below--pick a time listed below (or a time in between the times listed) to run on the days you will NOT be in attendance.

Everyone is doing extremely well so far! Keep up the good work and we'll see everyone this week and next!
