The Three Cees:
We believe in....
Commitment: to the team, school, character, and generally doing the right thing.
Consistent Positive Attitude: turning each situation into a positive experience.
Coming to Compete: using each practice as an opportunity to become a better racer...using each race as a chance to improve as a runner.
In order to reach our goals, we agree to practice perfection in the following ways:
1. Choose to be on time and prepared for school, class, practice and meets…every single day—please take care of you class work and ask for help if necessary. Missing school, a class, practices, or meets will result in missing future competitions or being removed from the team. Stay off the eligibility list because study sessions must be completed before school. On your second unexcused absence, you will be removed from the team. An excused absence is due to an emergency or one that is discussed with your coach in advance. Unexcused absences are due to lack of communication or not making XC a priority.
2. Choose to be a good person, student and teammate—get caught doing the right thing: be respectful to your peers, teachers, coaches and competitors, even if no one is watching. Absolutely no drinking, smoking, or using drugs, and no using electronic devices in an improper way (inappropriate texts or pictures on Facebook, etc.). Feel free to use your coaches as an excuse to avoid these problems. If you violate this rule, you will not compete for our team for the remainder of the season.
3. Choose to make a commitment to yourself and your team to be the best runner you can be—prioritize so that you can give your all at practice and meets. Bee sure to bring your running watch (that takes splits), running binder, and water bottle to practice every day.
4. Choose “Safety First!”—run in groups, use sidewalks when possible, run facing traffic, and look out for your teammates so that we can continue to go off campus for practice.
