On behalf of the Zillah High School Athletic Department, welcome to the Zillah Cross Country program! Our program gives the athlete the opportunity to mature both mentally and physically, gain confidence, develop character, and to further some individual aspirations through his or her talents.
As
a coach, I will assist and encourage the athlete in his or her quests for
success which will give better meaning, value, and purpose to life. My foremost
concern is that each athlete will develop academically, physically, and
socially into a complete person. Furthermore, I believe dedication and devotion
to the highest standards of excellence and self-discipline will enhance the individual’s respect for his or her own body and mind and
respect for those of others.
TO THE ATHLETES
The sport of cross-country offers excellent opportunities to develop your body through physical effort and to enrich your character growth as you participate in regular and persistent training. Our team will offer unparalleled opportunities for learning the meaning of sportsmanship by actual participation as well as provide unforgettable experiences and the chance to develop life-long friendships. You will never forget the fun of competition, the joy in being successful, and feeling of working hard.
There is a place on the team for any person willing to work hard. As a coach, I will be dedicated to you and will spend many hours devoted to you. In return, your success will depend upon the kind of life you lead. The little things such as: how well you sleep and eat, whether you diligently follow the training rules, and whether you have conditioned yourself physically and mentally are all very important.
If you are willing to take care of those things, you will find success in this
sport.
Have a great season and school year!!!
Sincerely, Coach Johnson
Go Zillah Cross Country
PRACTICE:
Practice will begin at the designated start time and place. It is important that you get to practice on time and I will be taking roll to make sure you do. If for any reason you can't come to practice, you will need to notify me before practice begins for that day. Failing to notify me will result in an unexcused absence. Three unexcused absences will result in dismissal from the team and/or loss of letter eligibility.
EXPECTATIONS:
- DO YOUR BEST. Run each practice the best you can. 90% of cross country is mental attitude.
- Your body can always do more than you think.
- TREAT OTHERS LIKE YOU WANT TO BE TREATED.
- BE HEALTHY- IT'S A KEY FACTOR IN YOUR SUCCESS.
- *Eat appropriate foods
- *Get 8 hours of sleep a night
- *Drink 6-8 glasses of water per day
- WEAR APPROPRIATE CLOTHING.
- STRETCH AND WARMUP CORRECTLY.
- ROAD RUNNING RULES:
- ALWAYS STAY ON THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD
- FACE TRAFFIC; RUN IN SINGLE FILE; BE ALERT
- AT INTERSECTIONS; BE AWARE OF ERRATIC DRIVERS
- NO HEADPHONES
- RUN IN PAIRS
- BE AWARE OF OBJECTS IN ROAD OR BEING THROWN FROM VEHICLES;
- BE AWARE OF DOGS
- ALWAYS RUN THE COURSE INDICATED BY YOUR COACH.
- MEET ROUTINE: At all home and away meets a team warmup and warmdown will occur.
- You are expected to be a part of
this. Your support of other teammates in their races is also important as
well as being informed
afterwards. Failure to do this may result in not running in the next meet.
EMERGENCIES:
As in all sports, the nature of Cross Country can cause injury. Most will be minor and can be managed with basic first aid. Your coach is certified in first aid and CPR and should be contacted immediately if you get injured. If you become ill or dizzy, notify the coach immediately.
EQUIPMENT:
It is essential that you have a good pair of running shoes to practice in. Good shoes can help avoid many running injuries that can keep you from participating. Get some shoes that have good support and cushioning. Cross training shoes are not made to run high mileage so try to get some well made, name brand running shoes. See me if you can't get shoes. Those that want to run fast in the meet should purchase some racing shoes for the meets. For every 1 ounce your shoe weighs less than your training shoes will decrease yourtime by 1 second for 1000 meters you run. This amounts to 25-30 secondsfor a 3 mile race. I also suggest you get a water bottle of some kind to bring with you to practice. It is very important that you drink lots of fluids before practice, during practice, and after practice. You can get a plastic sipper at many convenience stores.
TRANSPORTATION:
The school district will provide transportation to and from each of our competitions. Traveling as a team builds team unity. If you must use alternative transportation, please let me know the day before the meet and have your parents contact me when you are leaving.
UNIFORMS AND WARM-UPS:
Before the first meet, I will issue you a meet top, shorts, and warm-up suit. These are to be worn only at the meets. The league has specific requirements for dress at the meet so don't forget your uniform. You will need to provide your own practice clothes and sweats. Any lost or damaged items will be charged to you. You may also order a practice team shirt if you want.
VARSITY LETTER REQUIREMENTS:
Lettering in cross country requires the athlete to earn points based on attendance at practice and meets, placing in meets, and attitude. The athlete will also need to show improvement in his/her running, have less than 3 unexcused absences, and complete the season. Based on the previous best seven race results and the coach's discretion determines who runs the next varsity meet.
ATTENDANCE:
Three (3) unexcused absences from practice during the season will cause the athlete to lose varsity letter eligibility. I expect to hear from you before practice begins when you cannot be in attendance. We all have personal emergencies, dental appointments, etc. But the courteous and responsible thing to do is to inform the coach and your teammates of your conflict. Those that miss practice frequently may be required to verify absences with a note from a parent.
NO EXCUSES ACCEPTED AFTER PRACTICE.
As for attendance at meets,
they are the reason we exist. The team is relying on everybody to perform the
best they can. An athlete will only be excused from a meet if there is a prior
medical reason or a rare unforeseen family reason.
MUTUAL RESPECT:
Treating one's teammates and
coach with respect and common courtesy is a fundamental requirement for team
membership. Cross country, like track and field, must be based on development
of individual talents. No ball is being handled, nor are
intricate "plays" required; however athletes are expected to
naturally join the club and support one another as individual runners. The
requirement for mutual respect among athletes and coach is broad enough to
cover any foreseeable incident which may require disciplinary action. Violations
will be dealt with on an individual basis.
ACKNOWLEDGMENT(cut, sign, and return acknowledgment)
We certify that we have read
and understand the cautions, considerations, and responsibilities required for
participation in the Zillah High School Cross Country Program.
