VARSITY AWARDS AND LETTERS 2009

League Championship and CIF Patches: League Championship patches will be awarded to varsity letter earners who raced in the top nine (9) of King’s finishers at least once during the season. CIF Finalist/championship patches will be awarded to those who raced in, or served as an alternate on the CIF teams.

Varsity Letter Requirements:
The varsity letter for King Cross Country is awared for both talent and effort. It is designed to be a valued award for hard work, dedication, and ability. The achievement of a varsity letter is not a right, but rather the result of a personal responsibility to act and behave all season in a “Varsity Manner,” meaning, an above average commitment to the team, the sport, to hard work and to improvement. A letter can be earned by anyone from any grade level. To earn a varsity letter in Cross Country, the athlete must do the following.

1. Finish the season in good standing with the coaches
2. Maintain a “varsity attitude” throughout the season. A varsity attitude is demonstrated by an above-average commitment to the team’s goals, to the sport and to one’s individual improvement.
3. Finish the season with a 2.0 GPA
4. Don't quit. Quitting for any reason prior to the end of the season will disqualify an athlete from a letter.
5. Earn 100 or more points from any of the following categories.
