Future clinic dates T.B.D.

The College Running Clinic is a free hour-long clinic for high school sophomores, juniors, and seniors considering competing in track and field or cross country in college.  A lot of misinformation about collegiate competition makes its way through the grapevine down to the high school athlete, and it’s often difficult to discern the fact from the fiction.  The recruiting process can be confusing and programs can seem intimidating at times.  How does the high school student-athlete sift through everything and make a choice about competing in college?  Where does one even begin?  We’re here to help.  The College Running Clinic is here to provide you with the answers to your questions concerning the future of your participation in this great sport of ours.   

This is not a clinic that is going to claim that it can tell you how to squeeze a program for the most scholarship money or that is going to tell you which school you should attend.  It’s our goal to provide you with as much knowledge as possible to aid you as you make your own decisions about your future.  No college coaches or current college athletes are a part of the clinic.  Instead, we’re here to offer an unbiased overview of the collegiate system as a whole; a how-to guide for those interested in continuing to take part in track and field after high school.  We’ll cover the differences between the various levels of the NCAA and NAIA, program expectations, scholarship opportunities, and the transition from high school to college.  We’ll also talk about balancing practice with classes, the pressures of college life, and more.  Collegiate competition isn’t for everyone, but we’d love to see all interested student-athletes given a fair chance to find their place in the ranks of university track and field. 

Both students and parents are invited to come. The clinic is free, however we do expect that each attendee signs up in advance, either by calling the store in advance or using the sign up sheet below. It is important to us to have enough resources for everyone in the clinic. Thanks!
