Registration is now open for the 2021 Track & Field season!

• The season will be capped at 50 participants this year, so please register early.  First, register on our team website, and then you will be contacted by Road Runners, to confirm your spot.  Then, you must register and be a member of USATF (USA Track and Field) and have a current, valid USATF number.  THIS IS REQUIRED FOR INSURANCE PURPOSES!   The youth fee is $25. Memberships are good for a calendar year.  If you renew your membership for the 2021 Track and Field season, it will still be valid for the 2021 XC season.

• The registration fee for the Spring 2021 season is $50, and we offer a $5 sibling discount.

• The Season will run from May 3rd, 2021, through June 24th, 2021. 

• The registration fee includes facility use fees charged by the Averill Park School District.  There will not be sanctioned meets this season due to Covid.

The Averill Park Road Runners Board believes that all children should have access to healthy activities and has made a small number of scholarships available for families who may otherwise be unable to afford the program.  Please contact our Board at board@aproadrunners.com for more information.

If your child is between the ages of 7 and 14, follow our two-step process for registration.

Past Letter about the 2021 Track and Field Season

Hello friends and families. It’s been an extremely long year during this pandemic. The kids need sports back in their lives and so do the coaches. It’s a great opportunity to get back to enjoy what we have missed. The Road Runners board has begun discussion on how to proceed with Averill Park Road Runners (APRR) for the spring of 2021 and beyond.

APRR 2021 Season Update

APRR is a volunteer based program and has been operated by parents of
children who have participated, or are still participating in the club. There is
a wide range of volunteer requirements that are extremely important to
run a successful club. The club is currently in a transition process of APPR
board leadership and coaches. We are losing some members that have
been with APPR for over 10 years. Their experience, enthusiasm, and
dedication in making APPR what it is has become is amazing! Their children
have aged out and they are ready to pass the baton over to the next crew
to keep APRR running strong for years to come.

APRR Volunteers

We are looking for volunteer assistance from parents to make a successful
APPR 2021 for the children. To begin the upcoming season there are certain
health and safety guidelines that will be required to hold track practices at
Averill Park High School. The board is currently formulating our protocol
and we plan to share that with the community soon.

While we do have a few returning experienced volunteers, we are looking
for volunteers for the following roles:
 
APRR 2021 Track & Field Coaches
 Head Coach
Coordinate practices and team communications
Coordinate coach/junior coach event coverage

 Field Event Coaches (all can be shared between volunteers)
Sprints

High Jump

Long Jump

Shot Put/Throws

 Assistant Coaches (All Running/Field Events)
No experience required. The APRR Coaches and Junior Coaches
will be instructing the session, but we will need assistance
with the group as needed by the coaches

 Non-Coaching Volunteer Positions 

 Board members
 
We are in the planning phase of the APRR 2021 Track & Field season. There is a lot of work ahead, but the board is gearing up to get the
season moving in the right direction. 

More information to come as the season approaches through the following channels:
-         APRR Facebook page
-         AProadrunners.com
-         Email Notification

We need your help to make the spring 2021 T&F season a reality. If
you are able to volunteer for any of the needs listed above, or if you have
any questions, please email Adam Berger at abrgr24@gmail.com at your
earliest convenience.

Thank you,
APRR Board
