REGISTRATION:
360 Elite Track Club is a competitive track team for athletes of all levels and have open registrations for both Indoor and Outdoor track seasons. We participate in AAU and USATF sanctioned events, other approved track meets, and the National Junior Olympics (at the club's discretion). Registration is performed online at www.360elitetrackclub.com. One athlete per registration; if you have multiple athletes, each athlete must have a completed registration entry.
This program is open to ages 6 -18 years old. Age is based on the participant's age as of December 3i5t of the current year. If the athlete has co-participation in another sport, that information must be communicated to 360 Staff.
Registration is due prior to the start of the season. Payment plans are available; however they do require a minimum deposit and must be approved by the club administrator. If a scheduled payment is missed, the athlete (or athletes) will not be entered in any subsequent track meets and subject to "sit-out" at practice. If the participant (pre-registered or registered) has been flagged for nonpayment or has a previous outstanding balance, they are ineligible for the payment plan option in any succeeding track seasons; their registration must be paid in full by the start of the season. All payments are non-refundable.
Accident insurance is not provided by 360 Elite Track Club. Any injuries are the responsibility of the participants/parents.
FUNDRAISING:
360 Elite Track Club will conduct various fundraisers throughout the seasons to help fund equipment, travel, club overhead costs, & meet sponsorships. Parents and athletes are expected to participate and assist with fundraising.
Practice for the Outdoor season begin in April and the scheduled time and days will be communicated prior to the start of that season.
Practice for the Indoor season will begin in December and the scheduled time and days will be communicated prior to the start of the season.
Other special practices may be scheduled during the season and communicated through the club's Group chat.
Track Meets take place locally and throughout the region. There will be occasions in which we will compete and/or travel outside of the Hampton Roads area. It is the parent's responsibility to get their child to the track meets unless coordinated otherwise with the club administrative staff. Athletes that do not show for a track meet in which they are entered in, and did not communicate warning oftheir absence to the staff, will be fined with a $25 fee that must be paid before the athlete(s) can be entered into a subsequent track meet.
Each participant is responsible for purchasing a team uniform. The uniform consists of a compression tank top, compression bottom, warm-up track suit, and a team bag. The uniform can be used for both Indoor and Outdoor seasons. If the athlete outgrows or loses their uniform or any particle within the uniform package, a new one must be purchased. The club does not replace outgrown, lost, or stolen uniforms, warm-up jackets, warm-up pants, or team bags. Running shoes and spikes are not included in the uniform package but is required for track. Parents/athletes are responsible for obtaining the appropriate footwear.
The 360 staff will determine if a practice session is rained out. If a practice is cancelled, this will be communicated through the designated team chat, GroupMe.
Athletes will be placed in events in which the coaching staff see the most potential. Some events may not be considered if we cannot provide the proper facility and coaching staff member.
COMMITMENT & CODE OF CONDUCT:
Every athlete and parent who registers is expected to be committed to the program. Our goal is to provide our athletes with the tools to reach their full athletic ability and to develop them in which they are engaged and driven to become elite within and beyond athleticism. Every athlete is expected to compete in scheduled track meets (developmental) proceeding qualifying events. Athletes that make it to qualifying events must be in good financial standing in order to be eligible to compete in regional, national, and Junior Olympic events. We are committed to the progress and success of every athlete and we expect the same from every athlete and parent.
