Ladies and Gentlemen, here is YOUR 2020 Flash Cross Country team
Summer Run & Swim Extended to 9/9
The New Fairfield Flash Track Club will begin its 20th cross country season on Monday, September 14, meeting at the NFHS track at 4:30 pm. Practices/workouts for interested athletes from Sherman and New Fairfield entering 5th-8th grade will be on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays this year.
Until school begins, Flash Track has extended its summer "Run & Swim" program to Wednesday, Sept. 9 at 6 pm, meeting at 38 Rita Drive. This is one final chance to get a head-start on the cross county season... and take a cooling dip at the end! We are following the best available COVID safety precautions and, according to the CIAC, running is considered among the safest of sports.
Run & Swim Continues through August
Registration is now open for the 2020 Flash Fall Cross-Country season!
Flash Cross Country is for boys and girls in 5th through 8th grade from New Fairfield and Sherman.
The season runs from September 9th through early November. First practice is Wednesday, September 14th.
Practices will be M/W/F from 4:30 to 5:45 - we will meet outside the NFHS track.
Flash Run & Swim is happening now through September 9th (except Labor Day)! Every Monday & Wednesday we meet at Coach Keller's place, 38 Rita Drive at 6pm. After a quick warmup (with masks) we run the neighborhood in groups and finish up with a dip in coach Keller's pool (bring swim gear). Kids of all ages are welcome, and their parents too. $5 per kid per session, refundable if you register for fall XC.
We are closely monitoring guidance from federal, state and local health officials related to COVID-19, and the status of our season could change as a result of changes to the rate of infection and community spread in Connecticut, Fairfield County, New Fairfield, and Sherman. Social distancing guidlines will be enforced.

An introduction to track and field:
Message Regarding COVID-19:
Based on recent decisions by NFPS to hold in-person learning in September, and the decision of CIAC to move foward with fall high school sports, Flash has decided to move forward with a fall cross-country season. We will have fewer meets than normal, and our season and meets (including possible league and state meets) are subject to change depending on guidance from state and local health officials. Details of practice protocols will be communicated to parents via email. Participants should bring facial masks to practice to wear during initial gathering and warm-ups.
