• Cross Country

  Girls and Boys Cross Country - The best thing to do over the summer to be prepared for fall cross country's demands is simply running. But it's as important to be smart about summer running as well as ambitious. Once school is out and the summer begins, novice/beginning runners should start by running every other day, perhaps starting at 1 mile and gradually building up to being able to complete 3 or 4 miles (in 30 to 40 minutes). After a few weeks, working towards a goal of running 5 days a week should become a priority. Not only will improved cardiovascular fitness and better muscle strength/adaptation be gained through consistent summer running, but also a tolerance for heat and a stable pre-season body weight. Injury prevention can also be greatly improved by entering the season with a solid base of summer running. Incorporating hills or occasional quick bursts during a run will add variety and help with overall development. Still, it isn't necessary to do arduous, demanding workouts. Just get the mileage accumulated. Equally important to the physical gains, confidence in oneself will come with summer running, such that the more challenging team workouts done during the actual season can be aggressively approached. Ideally, by mid-July (one month out from the beginning of the school year), one of the weekly runs should be a lengthier outing, perhaps up to 1 hour of consistent running at a comfortable pace. Swimming or cycling can be substituted for a daily run, and other activities such as push-ups, sit-ups or other physical exercise would only help to improve fitness for the fall. On a practical note, running earlier in the day (when it is cooler and before other activities begin to interfere) is a wise habit to establish. Keeping track of daily and weekly mileage is also recommended. If you would like support on keeping track of your mileage, the teams set up a Google doc to log your miles. If you are interested in participating, please email the coaches for more information. Good luck!

• Girls Volleyball

  Info Coming Soon

• Girls Golf

  Girls Golf - For preparation for the Fall girls Golf season, there are no official team practices throughout the summer, but getting in as much personal practice time as possible is highly recommended.  Utilizing a range several times a week throughout the summer to work on swing technique, driving distance, and overall club familiarization is a very good idea in order to prepare oneself for a successful and fulfilling golf season.  As well, playing 9 or 18 holes of golf from time to time, perhaps once a week or more, is very helpful for any young developing player.  One of the important aspects of playing high school golf matches is in playing "ready golf," where players learn to play their ball when they're ready rather than taking the time to wait for each player to take their next stroke.  Playing on-course golf is, therefore, an important part of one's preparation.  For other refinements, tips, or educational pieces to the game, it can be very valuable to view online golf instructional videos and then practice what you learn at a local course or driving range. 

   

  We will plan on having our first official practice following fall orientation.
