News and Announcements

This year has been very difficult to secure and retain locations for our growing youth track meets. Additionally there are some things that we will have to address going forward to ensure we do not having ongoing issues with the current sites we use. The following info will be updated on our website ASAP.

1. March 17th meet will be at Copper Canyon High School. After going back and forth for some time I was not able to get a site for Tucson this year. It is our goal to host a meet in Tucson each season. We will regroup for next year.

2. March 31st meet will be at South Mountain HS

3. There are no dogs / pets allowed on school property. This is a school policy that is at every school and we must adhere to this whether it is posted or not. It is in our contract agreement with the schools. 

4. No smoking, cooking, or alcoholic drinking on school property. This includes the parking lot. 

5. We will need 1 to 2 people from each club to help at the finish line at each meet. We will rotate so this should not be an issue. Most of the clubs have assignments, but we do have a few smaller clubs that do not have an assignment. I am looking for those clubs to step up to help at the meets.  We have clerking... but if anyone wants to help out at the finish line at track meets let me know.

Hi Guys,

There have been water bottles and clothing left all over the track each night.  Facilities have started complaining.  Please help us police and make sure the kids are getting their stuff.

We like our site and it is up to all of us to keep it clean and clutter free.  The water bottles are the worst.  

Coaches and parents.... if you see a water bottle on the ground please pick it up or have the nearest kid pick it up.  It's our track so let's keep it looking good.

Thank you for your help and cooperation.
 
 
Results are posted - Go online to Meet Results and see how your child did.  Great job to all the athletes.  More personal records... What an amazing group of athletes we have this year.  Parents please remember to be patient and give them time to develop and grow.

Clerking Table - Thank you to the parents who showed up for their shift and worked the clerking table and the concession stands... Your help and support is mucho appreciated.  We definitely have the best parents ever.   Parents if you are scheduled for clerking please show up and work your shift and if you cannot work, please assign someone to take your spot.  It's not fair to purposely miss your shift causing others to work longer.   

 

FEES

Everyone should be paid in FULL.  If you are not please send me an email ASAP to advise when payment will be made.  As always, you can make a donation to help out another athlete.

 

Next Meet - Saturday, March 17th at 8am... Please be at the track no later than 7:00am
Please continue to sit together and get to know your Cheetahs Family. Time to get ready for PIs.  No scheduling conflicts so we expect full attendance from California.  With that said please be at practice so we get everything we need to bring home all the trophies. 
Please send an email if your child will not be running in this meet, to azcheetahs@yahoo.com.
