PVYA BLUE RIDGE EXPRESS 2025

There is a critical need for Assistant Helper Coaches. At least 3 parents will need to make a commitment to help with 15 of our 22 scheduled practices. The program will be open to middle school athletes only if we do not have the commitment of 3 parent helper coaches by Aug. 10th.

Assuming that we have at least 3 helper parent coaches the season will begin on Tuesday August 19th. Cross Country is open to all area boys & girls, ages 7-14. Athletes will need to be in 1st grade or above during the coming season.

Cross Country is an endurance based running sport. Practices and meets are held on courses that use open fields and wood trails. This is not “track”. Distances range from 2K for 7-8 age group to 4K for 13-14 age group.

Cross Country will hold 2 practices per week from 5:30 pm – 6:30 pm.

Registration is $30 per athlete with a family rate offered. Registration will be held in person with a paper registration form. Online registration will not be used. Athletes can register at any of the first 3 practice sessions 8/19, 8/21, 8/25. Practices will take place on the Brunswick Middle School playing fields and some will be done at Catoctin Nature Park. Meets will be held on Sunday afternoons at various locations in the area. PVYA will host the first meet on Sunday Sept. 14th.
