2022 SCTC Youth Program Overview

We currently offer two programs for children aged 7-14, track and field in the spring, and cross country in the fall. 
Both programs emphasize physical conditioning and developing good sportsmanship, with the overall goal is to foster joy for physical activity. We welcome young athletes of all abilities, from novice to competitive. Currently included in the spring track and field program are: hurdles, long jump, relays, obstacle courses, and  plastic javelins. The fall cross country program emphasizes off-road running. Please visit the track and field and cross country pages for more information, including the upcoming 2021 schedules.

2022 Track and Field All-Comers MEETS

WHEN: Two Fridays, May 6 and 13 from 4-6pm
WHERE: Soquel High Track
WHO: All kids in the community, 14ish and younger. (Open to both kids in our program and those who weren’t.) 
HOW MUCH: $5 per athlete, and you pay when you arrive. No need to pre-register. 
WHAT: We will attempt to do as many of the races that we used to do in 2019. Every race has its own unique ribbon and you can decide which races you’d like to do. You can go home with a rainbow of ribbons to decorate your rooms or use as bookmarks! Our schedule was:
  • 4x100 Relay
  • 1600m (1 mile)
  • 60m with hurdles
  • 100m with hurdles
  • 800m
  • 60m with no hurdles
  • 100m with no hurdles
  • 400m
Parents, we could use some help with distributing ribbons and managing the races! If you could help on either day, please email Coach Laura at lchiorello@yahoo.com
