Boys & girls track field

Description

GRACEAC track operates as a Catholic United sport.  We separate the athletes into Catholic United East, CUE and (West) CUW.  Track athletes are separated into three categories - elementary (3/4 graders), juniors (5th & 6th graders) and seniors (7th & 8th graders). Thus, there are five divisions for each event - 3/4 graders, junior boys, junior girls, senior boys, and senior girls.

As a school-based team sport, team specifics are determined at the school level. This includes who the coach is, when/where practices are held, uniforms, etc. GRACEAC sets the rules and game schedules. There will be track meets held at West Catholic High School, Catholic Central Athletic Fields (The CAT), GR Christian and other potential schools. Those dates are to be determined, based upon availability from each school and will be released as soon as possible.

GRACEAC track takes place in the spring season. Practices typically begin mid March. Teams are limited to four practices/8 hours of practice per week in the preseason, and three practices/6 hours of practice per week once games begin. The regular season meets will begin after Spring Break and Holy Week. The postseason tournaments will be finished before Memorial Day weekend.

Track meets are long and will take several hours, so please dress warm.  We have included the order of events and approximate times when each race will be run.  Keep in mind if all goes as planned the race times should be accurate but can alter based on several factors.
