Round Rock Stars Track Club: Welcome

Watch this site for information on the 2012 summer track season. The AAU Junior Olympics will be in Houston - our own backyard!

FYI - for the rest of the summer, track practices will be at Cedar Ridge High School due to turf installation at Stony Point.

Date: Saturday June 2nd, 2012

Location: 20811 Ella Blvd, Spring, TX 77388 - Klein Collins High School

Arrival Time: 7:00am (athletes meet outside the gate)
Meet Time: 8:00am 

Meet Schedule: Flying Dragons Track Meet
Parents - there is a $5.00 entry for all spectators.

We have not been to this field before, so we do not know if we can have tents on the ground or in the stands. Parents are welcome to sit with the team.

Items athletes need to bring:

• Spikes
• Running shoes
• Warm-ups
• Sunblock
• Sleeping bag or blanket
• Water
• Fruit
• Sack lunch 

Please remember to have your children drink plenty of water starting on Friday and no milk products on Saturday morning.

Please note that parents will not be allowed on the field for this meet or meets in the future. This is an AAU rule.

First-time track meet parents: (Thanks Chris) If you haven't attended a summer track meet before, just a few things from someone who has done this for a number of years:

• It should be in the low 90s and humid. This makes for a long track meet, so lots of fluids, fruit, sandwiches, and shade help. Concessions are usually available, but except for water and Gatorade, it is best to wait until after your athlete's last event to enjoy them.
• If you have a canopy or umbrella, you may want to bring it. We try to keep our athletes out of the sun while they aren't running. And you'll probably need it, too! :-) Depending on the location, your own lawn chair may also come in handy (stadium seats get hard through the day).
• Field and distance events start earlier than running events; just be aware there may be a few hours between the time you arrive and the time your athlete runs their first race.
• We stay for the entire meet to support all our athletes. A good cheering section does wonders for everyone.
• Celebrate when it’s over! The first summer track meet for parents is always an eye-opening experience, so we hope this helps. If you have questions, feel free to ask any of us!

Brian Peterson, 16-4A district champion, threw at the Region 2 track meet at UT-Arlington and came in fourth. Brian's longest throw at Region was 154 feet, which was 3 feet short of qualifying for the state meet.

Personal training is not available on our practice days (Monday, Tuesday, & Thursday). If a parent is interested in personal training on non-practice days that can be discussed, but an additional fee will apply.

The schedule for summer 2012 is now available, but it is tentative. Keep watching the changes
