Dear Storm

final
week

practice
before
the
final
meet.
We

a
lot
going
on
this
week,
so
let's
get
right
into
it.
Please
read
the
email
carefully
We have a very busy week this week, I'd say right now to expect more emails as this week goes on.
Special practice this Thursday. We will be giving the kids glo - sticks for practice this Thursday. We will give a few but you are encouraged to bring all you want to help them glow in the dark for their last practice. This should be lots of fun and celebrate the last regular practice!!
There is an events coming up in the future that you can still attend, The next is the City of Santa Clarita will have an XC meet on Dec 3 at Central Park. I will put a copy of on our website.
The final meet this weekend is at Central Park, we will need some help setting up the coarse in the morning at 6:30 am If you can help please let Elaine or Jeremy know this week at practice.
Concession Stand, we will need some parents to work the concession stand, Please try to work shifts in there while your kids are not running. and please try to stay late. all families will be asked to bring an item for the stand.
This meet is the final meet and there will be team awards for all races, The top 8 in every age group will be called up on the podium after each race. The top 3 teams will also be called up on the podium. Every kid will get a medal as they finish. Please plan to stay a little longer as we would like all of the kids to be recognized if they get a team award.
Volunteers. As I mentioned this race is at our home course, we will need help with the set up and tear down.
Awards Banquet is on Thursday November 10th at the sports complex (Near basketball court & aquatics center & Skate park) It's in the main building right across for the basketball courts at the sports complex.

Post Season
Post
season
competition
is
our
conference
wide
team
called
Valley
United
Striders
- We
take
the
top
16-20
athletes
and
form
teams
to
represent
us
on a
national
level
of
competition.
There
are
2
qualifier
meets
to
make
it
to
the
Junior
Olympics
Cross
Country
National
Championship
meet
in
Hover
Alabama
on
December
10th.
Upon
completion
of
the
meet,
I
will
be
updating
the
rankings
of
the
season.
The
top
8 -
16
athletes
will
be
invited
to
participate
as
the
"A"
or
"B"
team
for
post
season
competition,
this
is a
top
of
the
conference
team,
that
will
represent
the
Valley
Conference
as
Valley
United
Striders,
we
will
be
filling
both
"A"
&
"B"
teams.
In
order
to
be
eligible
for
"A"
team
athletes
must
commit
to
travel
to
the
national
meet
to
be
held
in
December
10th,
in
Hoover
Alabama,
and
both
qualifier
races.
The
qualifying
races
are
mandatory
also.
" B"
team
members
only
have
to
attend
the
The
Association
meet
which
will
be
held
in
San
Bernadino
Nov.
13th
and
The
Regional
meet
will
be
held
in
Escondido
Nov.
20th.
How
the
rankings
work.
the
athletes
are
ranked
on
their
performance
by
averaging
their
finish
place
over
the
season.
If
an
athlete
has
ran
all
races
their
worse
finish
place
will
be
removed,
and
their
average
will
be
based
on
the
best
of 6
races.
(there
were
7
total).
In
some
cases
for
the
last
2
positron
the
conference
will
vote
if
the
athletes
are
very
close.
If
your
child
is
ranked
in
the
top
25,
Please
let
Elaine
know
if
you
are
interested
in
post
season
competition.
It
is
very
possible
for
our
"A"
&
"B"
teams
to
be
advanced
to
the
national
competition.
We
are
a
very
strong
team.
There
is a
fee
to
join
the
team,
and
all
athletes
must
purchase
a
uniform.
(unless
they
already
have
one).
