-The first meet of the season is coming up quick and our first official optional summer workouts begin on Monday! These workouts are an excellent opportunity for everyone to get into great shape heading into the fall. Please remind athletes to bring their water, recovery food, and towel. After the workout athletes usually stick around for Ultimate and/or Nuke'Em. This time outside of workouts spent together is crucial to developing strong bonds with teammates. Everyone, especially incoming freshmen, are encouraged to stay after for these games.
-We had a handful of athletes volunteer their time to clean up at Huron Meadows Saturday morning. This was a great way to repay the park for all the years we've called them home. The park staff really appreciates the work of these athletes.
-Monday coaches will distribute emergency cards and will be ready to collect any physicals. Links to these forms along with the Parent Registration are below. All forms are required to be updated each year.
-Our first Single Track Trail run is Wednesday, the 29th at Island Lake. Runners should meet at the trailhead at 8 a.m. They'll be running the 6ish mile yellow trail. Attending runners should have several experiences of running 6 miles or more without stopping and be capable of maintaining contact with the main group. Athletes should be picked up at the trailhead at 9:30.
-Coach Monroe and upperclassmen will be leading workouts on Thursday and Friday of this week. Athletes planning on meeting at Kensington this Saturday should confirm with their teammates ahead of time.
-Next week is the MHSAA mandated Summer Dead Period. Coaches are not allowed contact with their athletes Sunday, July 3rd through Saturday, July 9th.
