Attendance Policy 2017 Season

Attendance Policy

1)      Athletes are expected to attend and be on time for all practices, meets, or team functions
2)      Practice will start promptly at 3:15 p.m. We will be dressed and on the track at this time.
3)      Three (3) unexcused absences from practice will result in removal from the team!

·         Miss 1 Practice = Miss 1 Meet
·         Miss 2 Practices = Miss 2 Meets
·         Miss 3 Practices = Miss the Season

The meets to be ‘missed’ will be the next meet AFTER the missed practice. Again, these are UNEXCUSED absences—we are extremely flexible but you must communicate your schedule with both the head coach AND your event coach, and it must be within 24 hours either before or after the absence (preferably as early as possible).

4)      Three (3) unexcused absences from practice will result in removal from the team. Unexcused absences include the following:

·       Missing practice and NOT providing Coach Rocco with an excuse within 24 hours of missed practice
·       Leaving practice early WITHOUT notifying Coach Rocco
·       Leaving a meet early WITHOUT notifying one’s event coach AND Coach Rocco
·       Opting out of an event at a meet WITHOUT notifying one’s event coach AND Coach Rocco
·       Coming to practice late WITHOUT a note from teacher/administration

5)     Excused absences will be permitted and may include, but are not limited to, the following:

Religious holiday
Family emergency
Illness
Injury

Please provide a note explaining your excused absence.

6)      If at all possible, make sure to inform Coach Rocco prior to an absence

7)      If you are ill and leave school, or miss school, you cannot attend practice

8)      Injured athletes are expected to attend practice daily and have their injury evaluated and    monitored by our athletic trainer

9)      Practice will be held rain/sleet/snow or shine. The coaching staff will decide whether to  modify or cancel practice at the track. Come prepared every day!

10)  Athletes are required to assist running the home track meets
