General Announcements - May 26 2011

The Scioto Track Club summer track schedule begins Tuesday, 31 May.  Practices will alternate between Upper Arlington High School and Hilliard Davidson High School.  The first practice is at Upper Arlington from 7:00 PM to 8:30 PM, and tentatively there will be a practice every Tuesday and Thursday at UA between 7:00 - 8:00 PM.  There WILL BE Hilliard and Dublin athletes at UA for these practices.  There WILL BE UA and Dublin athletes at Hilliard Davidson when practice is scheduled there.  

The Davidson schedule is still being determined, but ALL athletes, regardless of where they live or go to school are welcome and encouraged to attend ALL practices that are convenient for them at both locations.  There is no fee for summer track - it is "pay as you go", meaning you pay only for your own expenses.

Our first summer meet is the USATF Ohio Association Combined Events Championship and Worthington Summer Classic at Worthington Kilbourne High School.  Information may be found here:  http://newwtrack.org/2011WSCInfoFlyer.pdf

The Combined Events meet is Fri 10 June -Sat 11 June, and the open events meet is Sat 11 June.  Explanations of this are detailed in the flyer referenced above, we'll be explaining the process during practices, and more information will be posted here as the summer season progresses.   

All track athletes are encouraged to consider combined events, as well as the javelin throw.  These events are not offered in Ohio high school competition, but are nonetheless highly recruited by universities.  

Again, more information is forthcoming, but we hope to see all athletes who have finished their school season (elementary, middle-school, and high-school) at UA Tuesday.

Please see http://www.davidsontrack.blogspot.com for current information concerning club track and club cross country!  It's too difficult to update two web pages simultaneously, so the above link is where current information is located.  Other than that, the Scioto Track Club is exactly the same as it's always been!

Thanks, and see you soon!

Scioto Track Club Information

About The Club

Welcome to the Scioto Track and Cross Country Club! We’re primarily a federation of community youth and open athlete programs concentrating on the north and northwest areas of Columbus Ohio. All athletes are welcome to join regardless of area of residence. We offer coaching and administrative support from the local meet level to the national competition level. We’re registered with both USATF and AAU.

Location
Our practices take place in the Upper Arlington and Hilliard areas at a variety of times and locations. This ensures ample access for all athletes, and facilitates friendships between athletes from different schools and areas of the community.

Coaching Philosophy
Our coaches bring a variety of instructional techniques to the practices and often rotate between locations. This allows athletes and parents to choose locations and instructional techniques that they’re most comfortable with and best fit their needs. If an athlete is participating in several different events i.e. jumps, relays, and hurdles he or she may be encouraged to attend different practices at different locations throughout the week.

There is never any pressure to attend practices or meets. One main requirement we have, however, is if an athlete attends a practice he or she must be respectful and attentive to the coach running the practice drills. Even though we have an informal approach to practice attendance, when we’re on the track we want to take it seriously. Track is largely an individual sport, but individual attitudes during practice can’t be tolerated, for obvious reasons. Additionally, our athletes range in age from six to 18, and we depend on the older athletes to be proper role models for the younger athletes.

Fees
Because of our informal approach to practice and meet attendance our fees at this time are “pay as you go.” This means an athlete pays only for the meets he or she wants to participate in (usually around $12-15 per local meets, up to $30 for national-level meets.) As the season progresses athletes are required to join either USATF or AAU or both if they want to advance to the regional or national level competitions in these organizations (around $20 per year for each organization.) Uniform (optional) costs, travel costs, shoe costs, etc. are the responsibility of the individual athlete.

Staff
Our staff consists of Coach Irv, the club founder over 35 years ago (jumps, hurdles, throws), Coach Rick, the club president (middle and long distance), Coach Dan (jumps), Coach Deshaun (sprints and relays), and General Manager Matt. Additionally this year we'll be receiving guest coaching from area high school and middle school coaches.

In addition, we depend on a great deal of parental support.
