TWR
Fall Cross Country and Track & Field Prep
If you are thinking of running in High School and you attend one of the middle schools in the Wilde Lake High School district, this team is for you. Join us to learn how much you can gain from running XC with a group of friends and future teammates. We'll get together three times per week: two early evening practices and either a practice or cross country meet on weekends.
New for fall 2026, we will include a track & field component that focuses on sprint training for the indoor winter track season. The TWR coaches will work with the T&F athletes on building speed, agility, and power through a series of focused drills and exercises.
Information for Parents and Guardians
This program runs from September through November. We meet twice per week on weekday evenings and once on the weekend (either for practice or a meet). Generally, the practices will start in the early evenings. Check the home page for weekly practice times.
We hold practices on the WLHS practice fields and at the WLHS track. About once a week, we take athletes on a longish run through the surrounding neighborhoods.
There will be opportunities to compete in youth cross-country meets on the weekends.There is no requirement for athletes to run in competitions, but we believe participating in meets serves as a good introduction to the type of competition the athletes will experience in high school.
Please contact Coach Griffiths at CoachGriffiths@twrdragons.com for more information or instructions on how to register for the program.
