2025 Track & Field Preseason Info

The 2025 Track & Field Season is will be here before we know it!

If you plan on running, jumping or throwing there are a couple things that you will need to get taken care of prior to the start of practice.

• You must have your ATHLETIC PAPERWORK filled out and returned to the main office. If you competed in a fall/winter sport you should already have this done. 

  • Reminder that you need new paperwork filled out every year so if you haven’t filled out paperwork for the 24-25 school year you will need to get this taken care of ASAP.

• FILL OUT THIS FORM! We want to get you on the roster as well as get some basic contact information.  Filling out this form will do both of these things.

• Sign up to receive informational text messages through the “Remind” app.  Because of how large the track team is you will need to sign up using the appropriate code below.

  • • If you are a BOY ATHLETE – text  @ontf25boy  to the number  81010. Follow the prompts and make sure to use your real name. No nicknames.

    • If you are a GIRL ATHLETE – text  @ontf25girl  to the number  81010. Follow the prompts and make sure to use your real name. No nicknames.

    • If you are a PARENT – text  @ontf25par  to the number  81010. Follow the prompts and make sure to use your real name. No nicknames.

• We're starting conditioning sessions to get ready for the season.  If you are in a winter sport here at Olathe North, that is your priority and you should not attend any conditioning sessions.  If you are not currently participating though the expectation is that you make it to every conditioning session that you can.  Conditioning sessions have already started* and will continue until the season starts.  Everything will start the Monday after we get back from break (January 13th)

• • Conditioning sessions are split up by event group so we can have smaller groups as well as tailor workouts to your specific needs as an athlete.

    • Sprints/Hurdles/Jumps Groups – Meet outside the library in the 400 hallway on Mondays and Thursdays; 3:00-4:00.  Bring clothes for both inside and outside.  It will be a game time decision as to whether we are inside or outside.

    • Endurance/Long Distance Group – Meet outside weight room every day that school is in session; 3:00.  Dress to run outside.  We will run outside every day so look at the weather and dress appropriately.

    • Power/Throws Group – Meet outside the Weight Room on the benches on Monday through Thursday; 3:00 – 4:00.  Bring clothes for both inside and outside.  It will be a game time decision as to whether we are inside or outside.  

• Here is a Tentative Schedule for the season.  The actual meets may change but the dates will likely not.  Additionally, you need to start talking to your bosses at work.   YOU HAVE TO BE AT PRACTICE IN ORDER TO COMPETE.  Practice will start at 3:00 and will be over by 5:30 (some event groups will finish earlier) Monday through Friday; and 8am to 10am when we have practice on Saturdays.  DO NOT SCHEDULE WORK DURING THESE TIMES.

• Invite your friends! The more people we have on the track & field team the more enjoyable it will be for everyone!
