About Boys Track & Field

In track and field we build skills and compete in the areas of sprinting, distance running, and various field events; such as: long jump, triple jump, high jump, pole vault, discus and shot put. Track is a great way to develop healthy living habits, get stronger and faster for other sports, and meet new friends.

All abilities welcome. There are many options on the track team, so we can find a place for you.

My purpose as a coach of young adults is to show them what hard work, discipline and a positive attitude can get them. I want them to know that if they apply these skills to anything in their life they will be successful.

Team Details

Practices

Schedule:

We typically have practice for around two hours each day.
In addition, we may have up to two meets a week.

Parents new to enjoying their student-athletes' participation at track meets will sometimes ask when certain events will take place during a meet or when a meet will conclude. While no two meets are the same, here are some general guidelines:

Most of our track meets begin around 3:45 p.m.
Dual, Triangular and Quadrangular meets may be completed in around four hours, while invitational meets may take up to five hours (depending on the number of teams participating). At some meets, field events for boys and girls begin at the same time. At other meets, some events may begin with boys competing first and girls to follow or vice versa.
The standard order of running events on the track is as follows:
- 4 x 800m Relay
- 110m High Hurdles
- 100m Dash
- 4 x 200m Relay
- 1600m Run
- 4 x 100m Relay
- 400m Dash
- 300m Intermediate Hurdles
- 800m Run
- 200m Dash
- 3200m Run
- 4 x 400m Relay

Sports-Qualifying Physical

If you need a sports-qualifying physical, it is best to have your primary healthcare provider complete the exam because they are most aware of your health history. A second option is to go to your family’s health clinic. If you do not have a primary care physician or a family clinic, a third option is the Richfield Health Resource Center (RHRC) in Richfield High School.

RHRC is open Mondays and Wednesdays from 1-5 p.m. As a reminder, the RHRC provides care on a first-come, first-served basis and the beginning of each athletic season is a very busy time. Once the RHRC reaches patient capacity for an afternoon, patients are turned away. It is recommended that students get their sports-qualifying physical done before it is needed for Richfield athletics.

Download the Sports Qualifying Physical form before your appointment.
It is important to complete page two of the form before attending your appointment, including a parent/guardian signature.
After your physical, it is your responsibility to bring a copy of the form to the Athletic and Competitive Activities Office. You can send it to athletics@rpsmn.org, fax it to 612-798-6129, or bring it to the Athletic and Competitive Activities Office at Richfield High School or the Student Services Office at Richfield Middle School.
