» 6 reasons to get involved...

 

You will be giving a group of youngsters the opportunity to take part in an activity they would not be exposed to otherwise, thus enriching their lives.
   
The athletes will have fun – and so will the organizers.  With the variety of events available, all youngsters should be able to find at least 3 events that they will enjoy and derive satisfaction from. For many young athletes it will be their 1st exposure to a fairly formal track & field situation.
   
For schools it will help you meet the requirements of the Physical Education Curriculum.
   
Some of your athletes will qualify for the Alberta/N.W.T. Championship Meet – a major boost to self-confidence and an opportunity to compete at a facility that has hosted past Canadian Track & Field Championships.
   
Your athletes will be part of a North American program/competition. There is a chance that one or more of your young athletes might be successful enough to earn an all expenses paid trip to the North American Finals in Hershey, Pennsylvania.
   
Registration fee for schools is just $50 and that gives you school membership in Athletics Alberta for the school year. For new meets, a starter kit of equipment – watches, batons, whistles etc. For new schools, an outstanding resource, “Fast Track to Sports” – full of wonderful, practical ideas for your program.
