Cross Country Season 2021 in underway. We are very excited for what this season may bring.  The AAU District Meet is in Gastonia , NC on November 13 all runners who compete at District Meet qualify for Nationals. The AAU Junior Olympic Cross Country National Championship will be run in McAlpine Park in Charlotte on December 4 and we hope to represent the Cape Fear Region well  by having a good number of our athletes travel to compete in this event.

The registration fee of $80 covers a t-shirt for your athlete, coaching, equipment, facilities, and other overhead the club carries. There will be a registration fee for meets usually  about $10 per athlete. Athletes competing with the club at the AAU championship meet will have to pay for their membership to the governing body, $14, as well as the fees for the meets themselves.

Practices are Monday and Wednesday 5:30-7:00pm at picnic Shelter #2 in Veterans Park behind Anderson Elementary School.
