Are you ready to be outdoors? The track season is fast approaching. Below are some things you need to know in order to “run the race” at FCA.
Track is offered through the spring to kindergarteners through 12th graders. If your child is at least 12 years old on September 1, 2019, then they are considered long-season athletes. FCA has young men and women participating in all aspects of this sport including races, relays, throws, and jumps. All practices and home meets are hosted at William Jewell College’s Green Stadium, 175 R.E. Bowles Drive, Liberty, MO 64068.

Communication
Rather than scheduling parent meetings, we use TEAM APP for most communication, including distributing photos, updating practice and meet schedules, and many more functions. Important information for Knights’ athletes and their families will be distributed through email and TEAM APP once registration has been completed.
Please contact the athletic director via email at knightsad@fcaclassical.com with any questions you may have.
