2022 Youth XC Registration
BTC Youth Athletes and Parents,
The 2022 Youth XC season is here! The first practice will be Tuesday, September 6th for Beaverton, Lake Oswego, Sherwood and NE Portland locations. The first practice for North Portland will be Wednesday, September 7th.
For Beaverton Athletes:
We have not yet been notified if Nike WHQ Campus will be open to us. We will have that answer as soon as possible but wanted to get registration activated. Beaverton practice will be held either at Nike WHQ or Jesuit High School. Please stay tuned for more details.
Please see below for a full list of everything you need to know for the start of the season including practice maps, race schedule, uniforms and more.
Registration
Please complete the online registration before the first day of practice. You must submit a waiver before the first day of practice. If you have not submitted payment, please see the online registration above. Registration fees for the season is $200 per athlete or $600 maximum per family. If the registration fee is a financial issue, please contact us about scholarships at youth@bowermantc.com.
What to bring to practice?
Its been a warm summer but the weather will get cooler soon. Please get in the habit of bringing pants and long sleeve clothes for before and after practice. We encourage athletes to bring their own water bottles. However, many locations have drinking fountains. Whatever is brought to practice, please label it with your name.
2022 Race Schedule
Below is the proposed race schedule for the season. It is a working schedule and meets may be added or removed over the course of the season. On weekends where there are multiple races, please only plan to attend one of the races to avoid racing too much. Multiple meets are offered to provide different opportunities for people with busy schedules. Participation at the races is not required. The only time participation is required is for the Junior Olympic part of the season where you must run each race if you want a chance to participate in the next race. For meets where specific schedule information is available, you can click on the race to view the race schedule. We will send out announcements sign-ups for all of the races about a week out from each race. For all races before the Junior Olympic season, registration fees are included in XC sign-up. For the Junior Olympic season we will collect race registration later in the season. You can see more updates to the race schedule and race results throughout the season at Athletic.net.
