Shakopee Youth Cross Country

Do you have a child who likes to run or has a lot of energy? If yes, then the Shakopee Cross Country Youth Program is a perfect fit! We are excited to offer this program for our elementary and middle school students. Each participant will get exposure to cross country (both training and the fun that they can have on a cross country team later in life) that will help build their confidence, skills, and work ethic. Cross country is a sport where athletes run a longer distance on grass. Participants will learn a routine of warm-up drills, running workouts, and how to cool down properly. This program will also mix in fun games that focus on running and are common on high school cross country teams. Participants must bring running shoes and a water bottle to practices and meets. Meets eight times.
