Athletes will not have points subtracted according to the Trinity CC Attendance Policy until the first full day of school (Week 2 of practice), as long as students have informed coaches ahead of time of any conflicts or reasons for absence from early-season practices.

Runners all start with 15 points and are awarded additional points for 1) attendance at all organized practices and meets for that week and 2) running 6+ times over that practice week period. Points are subtracted for missed practices, depending on the circumstance and notification given to coaches for the absence.

If an athlete reaches a level of 0 points, they will miss the next meet. That athlete will then be given another 5 points. If that athlete reaches a level of 0 points again, they will be dismissed from the team for the remainder of the season.

Athletic Forms and Student Sport Registration

Hello,

We are just about ready for the cross country season to begin and in order for students to participate in practice, they will need to have completed the proper paperwork and forms.

Trinity has made much of this process easier by listing the sport signup information online and also making the registration forms available to download and complete at home.

I wanted to list a couple of important links here:

Here is the link to download the athletic forms:
http://trinityschools.org/riverridge/athletics/athletic-forms/

Here is the link for sports signup information:
http://www.sportssignup.com/Trinity-School-at-River-Ridge-Online-Registration.start

Many of the cross country items for volunteers, transportation, and fees will be taken care of online.

We also will have a cross country parents meeting on Monday, August 29th at 6:00pm after cross country practice at Trinity School to help any new parents get familiar with sport, go over any additional details and policies, and answer any questions.

If you need anything else or have any questions for now, please let me know.

Thanks,
Jesse
