Gym Snap Track GT & STX
Gym Snap track has two parts. Competition Team (track meets) and Performance Training “Only” (1 mid-season and 1 end of season track meet). Many of our parents are choosing to go with Performance Training only to help their athlete train for track and stay active. With the cost of track meets ranging from $20 to $40 per meet, the Performance Training option is great for The Athlete that will benefit more from the technique and training without the added pressure of a track meet or The Family that has vacation/s scheduled throughout the Summer. We will make it fun and challenging regardless of which option you select. Our internal meets will be scheduled during practice times throughout the season to give all athletes, Competition or Performance Training, the opportunity to compete against their teammates, earn ribbons and have fun!
What to expect
Registration
There is no deadline to register unless your athlete is expecting to compete AAU or TAAF.
We also do NOT have a registration fee. We are able to utilize the “open” track at no cost because we are a COMPLETELY FREE, VOLUNTARY organization. We are here to help you train your athlete.
Practices
Depending on overall Team size, practices will be Monday, Wednesday & Thursday 5:15pm - 7pm. Each athlete will have specific practice times and days depending on their age, level and/or availability. These days will remain the same throughout the season unless your athlete levels up or availability changes. Currently, we are all practicing on the same schedule.
2024 Track Schedules
Divisions
Youth Boys & Girls Track & Field (6U, 8U, 10U, 12U, 14U, 16U & 18 & Under Divisions)
Our age divisions are based on TAAF and AAU policies. Each age division is Co-ed for practices and practice meets but will be gender specific during sanctioned track meets. Age divisions are based on the year the athlete was born. For example, if your athlete was born 12/31/2011, your athlete will be competing in the 12U Division. If your athlete was born 1/1/2012, your athlete will be competing in the 10U Division.
Track Meets
Most of our Track Meets have been added to the Team Calendar with the exception of a few. We are waiting on the Lion’s Summer Meets (Normally in Marble Falls in June) and the schedule for our 1 optional destination Track Meet before we complete the schedule. Each meet will have a posted registration deadline. There are NO EXCEPTIONS!! All fees and registrations must be submitted prior to the expiration date/time. Most meets will have a spectator fee that can be paid at the gate or prior to “if” specified in the registration notes.
Uniform
Each athlete should dress in athletic clothes with running shoes. If your child would benefit from event-specific shoes or gear, feel free to provide that. Track Sprinter Spikes, Throwing Shoes, and Jumping Shoes are permitted but not required.
