Mahwah Youth Track and Field
As part of the USATF Developmental program we look forward to having your kids involved. This track program has been in existence for over fiften years and we have grown to a consistent 100+ athletes per year participating. As we have in the past, practice days are Tuesdays and Thursdays beginning at 5:30 pm and finishing at 7pm. For the first two weeks, practice will be from 5:30pm to 6:30pm so as to have the kids get acclimated to running, jumping & throwing. There will be no off practice days due to schools being closed for vacations. Please note that any practices cancelled due to inclement weather will not be made up. Practice days will run straight thru the second or third week of June. The meets are held on Sundays at 1:00 pm and are at the following locations

Unlike in previous years, one must purchase a USATF-NJ number to participate in ALL meets this year. This must be done prior to the first meet by April 12th at the very latest. On March 10 the USATF-NJ sign-up form will be handed out. Unfortunately it is done due to liability concerns by the national office and is out of all local associations hands.
Any questions you may have can be emailed to pcjrrun@att.net or you may call 862-881-2216. We look forward to a successful season.
Thank You
