MYAA Track & Field Program Overview

 

The MYAA Track & Field program is designed to introduce young athletes to the fundamentals of track and field in a fun, supportive, and inclusive environment. Whether your child is brand new to the sport or already loves to run, jump, or throw, this program provides an opportunity to build confidence, learn new skills, and be part of a team.

 

What to Expect

 

Athletes will be introduced to a variety of track and field events, including running, jumping, and throwing. Practices focus on learning proper techniques, understanding event rules, and developing athletic skills such as speed, strength, coordination, and sportsmanship. Emphasis is placed on personal improvement and effort, not just competition.

 

Practices & Meets

 

• The season runs from late April through early June

 

• Athletes will have one practice per week

Events & Participation

No prior experience is required—just a willingness to try, learn, and have fun!
