Bullseye Running / Howard County Striders Youth Program
Spring Track
Spring youth track and field program (all events) for kids no younger than born in 2018 [~age 7] and up to 2007 [~age 18].
REGISTRATION is open, but no kids born in or after 2019.
Registration for 2025 will close on March 5, click HERE to register after reading the notes below. Practices will start with our annual mandatory time trials (100 meters and 400 meters for everyone) in Mid-March. I will send everyone a google doc so you can choose which date and location you will do the time trial. After the time trial I will put everyone into practice groups based of the time trial details. We will then have 2 practices each week, days will change unfortunately due to high school sports schedules. Meets are on Sunday afternoons for those that want to come to those.
Time trials (just one day for each of you) – Reservoir 3/10 or 3/11 or Oakland Mills 3/12
Dates for 2025 practices (each of you will be assigned to a location and practice group after the time trials):
If put into a group at Oakland Mills: 3/18, 3/20, 3/24, 3/31, 4/2, 4/7, 4/9, 4/14, 4/16, 4/22, 4/24, 4/29, 5/1, 5/6, 5/8, 5/13, 5/15, 5/20, 5/22.
