Track and Field Meets -  Spring 2027

All meets and Events: TBD

Qualification Process

At the start of the season, all students can participate in any event they wish to try and can attend the FUN Track or Field meets.  

Selection for the Qualification Meets is based on attendance at the practices and performance in the sport.  We have limits as to the numbers of students we can send to the qualification meets. The coaches will inform students if they have been selected to go to the qualification meets

Selection for the final Swangard Track & Field Meet is based on performance at the qualification meets. Students will be informed if they have made the final team.   "Alternates" will also be informed and will only attend if a qualified student is unable to attend.

​Transportation

Students/Parents/Guardians are responsible for transportation to and from all track and field meets.  

Families are welcome to arrange their own carpools with other families.  Families are welcome to attend the events and cheer on the teams.

​Team Jerseys​

​Students who participate in Track & Field meets are asked to wear a team jersey. The school charges a refundable $75 deposit per jersey. A School Cash Online charge will be added to participating student accounts and jerseys will be handed out to students prior to the first meet. Deposits will be refunded once the jersey is cleaned and returned at the end of the season.   An extra $5 will also be collected for the new NVSD Track & Field fee.
