Cross Country Program

Cross country is on hiatus for 2022 due to shortage of available volunteer coaches. Please email cristina@royalcitytrack.ca if you are interested in learning about becoming a coach.
The Cross Country season begins in September and continues through the fall. All interested Royal City Track and Field Club athletes can participate in the Cross Country season. Cross Country registration fees are included in our membership fees. The club participates in the Lower Mainland Cross Country Series and the BC Cross Country Championships. Cross country practices are intensive practices designed to build endurance. Participants will be expected to challenge themselves at the practices to prepare to compete in the Lower Mainland Cross Country Series and the Provincial Cross Country Championships Meet. Parents are responsible for registering their own child for the meets on TrackieReg which is the online registration for track & field, x-country and road running events. If you have not participated in the Track and Field season and wish to register only for the Cross Country season, registration will open following the Track and Field season. For specific registration information see the Registration page. Also refer to the Practice Schedules page for more information regarding practice times and details. Dates and locations for the Cross Country Races can be found at: http://www.bcathletics.org. For more information about the Cross Country Season, please reach out to Head Coach Cristina Weir at cristina@royalcitytrack.ca or send an email to communications@royalcitytrack.ca.
