Just a few announcements as we near the end of July. DIAA has updated their sports physical form. You must use the UPDATED form. Click HERE for the new form. All athletes must have a physical on file at the nurse's office before the first day of practice. You cannot attend practice if you physical is not updated and on file with the nurse.
In case you haven't noticed, we are in the midst of a heat wave ;) Please exercise caution when running. Early morning or evening hours are the best time to run. If you have access to a treadmill, you may want to run indoors until this heat wave breaks.
I'm excited that we have new runners joining our team this year. Welcome to Ethan, Finn, Morgan, Hannah, Lilah, Lauren, and Meg (if I missed anyone, please let me know!!!) If you know of anyone who may be interested in joining our team, please have them contact me.
If you haven't started your XC training, lace up those sneaks and start logging some miles. See previous post for Summer Training Guide.
We are also in a holding pattern regarding our first date of preseason. Below is an announcement from the head of DIAA:
DIAA Updates:
· Fall Sports Decision Update – During the Governor’s press conference on Tuesday, July 14, DDOE released guidance for Delaware School Reopening Plan and the Governor shared the School Return Plan will be released in early August. With that said, a decision for fall sports will be made in August; hopefully, at the August 13 Board meeting. We understand the release date will be close to the current start date of August 17 but we ask for your patience and understanding during the time. We will keep you posted as information is shared and confirmed.
I will let you know as soon as a decision is made.
Stay cool!
Coach Flanagan
