The University City Youth 49ers (Niners) organization was established in 2006. The organization strives to promote educational and community outreach, mentorship and diversity through athletics and social interaction. Through this effort, the UCYN hopes to instill and reflect pride, teamwork, sportsmanship, quality work ethic, discipline and awareness while stressing academic and athletic achievement and leadership, among its participants and members of the community they interact with. Through the foundation of these guiding principles, the UCYN hopes to achieve these goals by placing a strong emphasis on academic achievement, positive sportsmanship, character development and physical fitness. Our student athletes range in age from 6 to 17. We are committed to the overall success and achievements of youths from culturally and economically diverse backgrounds. Currently, the UCYN organization offers programs in football, basketball and track. To learn more about the UCYN overall organization go to www.ucyn.org.
The UCYN TRACK CLUB (established September 2007) hails its origin from the previously established University City Cougars Track Club, (organized in 2000); Coach Tulani Vaughn was one of the founders of this organization. The UCYN are currently a member of the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) and USA Track and Field (USATF) organizations. We are a year round competitive program that offers cross country, indoor/spring track, and summer outdoor track. We provide training in all running events (including hurdles) and field events (shot put, discus, long jump and high jump). All coaches are required to have a criminal background check. Also, coaches will be certified USATF Level I (or higher) or working towards such certification. Our coaching staff consist of Coach Tulani Vaughn, Coach Rob Jackson, Coach Kevin Lyles, Coach Frank Williams, Coach Rudolph Brown and Coach Miles Vaughn.

PRACTICE SCHEDULE - CHECK THE CALENDAR Check the website frequently to see if there are any changes in the schedule. Practices will usually take place on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. Athletes will be provided with a program to follow on the days that we do not practice together as a team. During the Spring Season practices will take place on Thursdays, Saturdays and some Sundays.
MEDICAL ALERT: Please note - athletes will not be able to participate with our team without an updated annual physical examination. A copy of this examination must be submitted along with your registration forms.
REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN FOR 2012 SUMMER TRACK SEASON
2011 – 2012 University City Youth Niners Cross Country / Track & Field Information The new track year will start in September 2011. We will start with our Cross Country Season. Cross Country will be for 12 weeks (9/10/2011 – 12/3/2011). During this season there will be approximately seven cross country meets. The next season will be our Indoor Season. The Indoor Season is a six to possibly 8 week program from 1/14/2012 to 3/3/2012(or 3/10/12 depending on the date of the AAU Indoor Nationals). The team will participate in one or possibly two indoor meets which will mostly likely be outside of North Carolina (possibly Virginia, Maryland, or Tennessee). We will end the season by participating in the AAU Indoor National Championships or some other Indoor Championship. Please note that during the Indoor Season practices take place outdoors. Following the Indoor Season is our Spring Season which is a six week program from 3/10/2012 to 4/21/2012. Note: We did not have an Indoor Season this year. As a result of this our Spring Season will start on 2/25/2012 to 4/14/2012. During this season there will be at least two small development track meets that the team will participate in. This is a good season for those youth who are just starting track as well as for returning athletes. We end the year with our Outdoor/Summer Track Season. This is our longest season which will be from 4/21/2012 to 8/4/2012. Registration information is posted, click on registration link. To register, new and returning athletes need to download and/or read the handbook and print out pages 10 & 11 complete and submit. A tentative schedule for the 2011-2012 year will be posted as soon as information about different meets is available.
ANNUAL REGISTRATION (September - July): $100.00 per athlete/yearly - this fee is paid in addition to the season enrollment fee.
Yearly Conditioning Program (September – July):
Those athletes who are only interested in participating in a conditioning program (will not run in any meets) will be required to pay the $100/annual membership fee.
Season I - Cross Country (September – December):
Enrollment Fee: $100.00/per athlete + Annual Registration Fee ($100) = $200. Enrollment deadline date: September 29th
Season II - Spring Track (February – April):
Enrollment Fee: $60.00/per athlete + Annual Registration Fee ($100) = $160. Enrollment deadline date: March 10th

Parking at UNCC - There is no free parking on campus during the week. When parking pay attention to the college signs. Do not park in restricted areas. You are not allowed to park in the lot near the track without a parking pass. Option #1 - To avoid having to purchase a parking pass ($5.00 per day) park in the mall on Tryon, cross the street and walk to campus, then take the bus (free) down to the track. Option#2 -Purchase daily parking passes ($5/per day) from parking services on campus and park in the lot near the track. Option#3 - Park in the visitor parking lots and pay as you leave.
The UCYN is not a direct affiliate, department, or sponsored organization of the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, but has been granted business level and legal approval to field sports teams using the Charlotte 49ers name, design and logo. We are a non profit corporation with 501(c)3status. One of our goals is to further our educational and community outreach programs.
