Mini-meets

 

 

2012 DVTFC Meets

For 2012, DVTFC will hold two 'mini-meets' in March and April, which are club-sponsored practice meets with other youth clubs, and also participate as a team in 2 other sectional / invitational meets in April and May.  

2012 Regular Season Schedule

MINI-MEETS

Saturday, March 24   2pm - 5pm  at Acalanes High School

Saturday, April 14      9am - Noon at Acalanes High School

Another 'away' meet will likely be scheduled at Castro Valley HS either the weekend of March 31 or April 7.  More info forthcoming as it become available.

 

SECTIONAL AND INVITATIONAL MEETS

Most meets are held at high school stadiums on Saturdays.  There are usually hundreds of athletes participating in these meets, creating an atmosphere of excitement for our athletes - as well as an organizational challenge for the coaches and parents.

Athletes must register in advance via e-mail to our club manager (info@dvtfc.org) usually 2 weeks before the date of the meet.  E-mail reminders will be sent to all club members about upcoming Sectional / Invitational meets.  DVTFC pays all meet entry fees. 

The tentative Sectional / Invitational meets are:

April 21 Shor / Sheppard Classic
Mt Pleasant HS, San Jose
May 5-6 Hercules Runnning Rebels / Top Pacers Track Club
Contra Costa JC, San Pablo
     

DVTFC will always have one or two coaches in attendance at each meet.  They erect our team tent in the morning, obtain the official registration packet and monitor our athletes’ performances.  Parents are responsible for transportation to and from meets, food and supplies for the day, and shepherding athletes to events.  (Our coaches will provide as much guidance as possible, but they cannot be responsible for getting each and every athlete to the right place at the right time !)  

CHAMPIONSHIP MEETS

Athletes who choose to remain for the championship portion of the season (beyond May 13) may compete in larger sectional and invitational meets in June/July as well as the USATF Pacific Association Championships in mid-June.  They can also compete in a series of local and regional qualifying meets for the National Junior Olympics, to be held this year in Baltimore, MD the end of July.  

There will be an additional fee for participating in the Championship Season.
