Husky Youth XC Team
Our planned spring session will be canceled due to current school closures. Our summer dates and everything afterward will remain!
Click Here to fill out the form and sign up to be part of the Hale XC Youth Team!
In 2019 we introduced our first youth XC camps which had two sessions. We look to continue this going forward and turn it into a continuous team we will introduce as the Husky Youth XC Team. Upon sign up, you'll be connected with our XC program all the way through 8th grade, and hopefully many will then be at Hale starting as freshmen with a great understanding of the sport and our team culture. The team is open to anyone going anywhere, not just those attending Hale! When signing up, I will communicate via email and through the website information on our youth programs and the high school teams. It will be fun to see the progress over the years, and we believe the strong tradition of Hale XC can continue to grow as we build connections earlier.
The team will be open to 2nd through 8th grade boys and girls. Please read through the following and then scroll down to find a sign up form to get information communicated and become a part of the Youth XC Team.
There will be no cost to being on the team, however any camps run through Hale in the summers will have a cost with all money going toward the programs! Here's how the Husky Youth XC Team will look by grade level,
2nd-5th Graders
2nd-5th Grade participants will participate in the spring and fall XC week long sessions (and now planning a summer session) which will focus on movement, team building, positive play, and character. We will emphasize running as a positive rather than a punishment, and will promote problem solving and decision making within the activities and games we administer. These camps will be free.
New this summer as well I will be leading a Youth Sports and Play Camp for two weeks. The dates and information for this camp run through Hale will be found in the Hale Summer Programs Packet which comes out in early spring! This camp will have a cost based on the Hale Summer Camps and will be shown in the brochure.
Tentative Dates (Any changes will be communicated)
2020 Summer Session (2nd - 5th Graders) - July 6-8 at 6:00-7:00 p.m.
2020 Fall Session (2nd- 5th Graders) - September 7th-10th at 6:00-7:00 p.m. meet by the Hale Commons Entrance
6th-8th Grade
Once reaching 6th grade, we encourage our youth athletes to join the middle school XC and track teams. Then in summers, we will encourage them to do our summer running camp which meets for 6 weeks, 3 days a week. Upon signing your son/daughter up, dates/information on the summer running will be communicated in spring. During summer and in these middle school years, they will transition into learning running distance, be introduced to strength work, and get acquainted with the entire high school team that trains during the same time.
The middle school in season XC and track programs are structured to give a light introduction to the sport of cross country and track, and will also allow athletes to compete against other schools in the area!
We will also annually invite middle school boys (and hoping girls by this season or next) to compete in the Lourdes Invitational Middle School Meet which takes place before the high school races. This meet is held at the end of September and details are given to all 6th-8th graders as well as coaches who will communicate the details. This is a true cross country meet experience against some great competition.
