Cross Country Team Policies
- Attendance Policy: Attendance to all Organized Team Activities (OTA) is required for practice, competition and other meetings. Student-athletes are excused if they have a documented note (from parents, doctors, etc). Excessive unexcused absences may result in removal from team.
- Injuries Policy: Running is a high -impact activity and could result in injury from time to time. Players with injuries that prevent them from training or competing properly will require a doctor's note to resume regular participation.
- Ride Pick Up Policy: A meet and practice schedule will be provided for you, and will also be on the cross country google page. Practices will be held at RVS Monday - Thursday with Friday being a flex day (unless there is a meet).
- Pickup from practice will be at 4:00 at RVS. Pickup from home meets is estimated at 5:00 at RFL. Pickup from away meets is estimated at 5:40 at RVS, but athletes will be encouraged to call on the way back.
- Grade Level Races: 6th, 7th and 8th graders can all take part in the county grade level races at the end of the season.
- County Championships: 5 of the top runners from 6th, 7th and 8th grade will be invited to take part in the county races at the end of the season. There will also be 2 alternates that can run.
- Athletes are expected to follow all rules from the RVS Athletic Team Contract that was signed off on to take part on the team. Failure to do so can result in removal from athletic teams.
