Empowering Young Athletes, One Step at a Time
About Brocaw Blazers
You are welcome to join the team at any point in the season.
REMEMBER TO SMILE BEFORE EVERY RUN AND RACE!
ATTENTION: TIME & LOCATION CHANGE. The Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday Johnson County practices normally held at Stoll Park will now start at 5:00 P.M. We will meet at the tree where we start all hard workouts. This is due to Daylight Savings Time ending and Stoll Park closing before we are done with practice.
Please remember our troops and send them your Halloween candy. Coach Ramsey is more than happy to make sure that they get your candy as they need it a lot more than you do. Just bring it to practice and he will get it to them.
On Sunday, Nov. 8th we welcome everyone age 6-14 to participate in the CCCNYC National Qualifier Meet at the Baldwin Golf Course in Baldwin, KS. Meet registration will begin at 11:30 a.m. The meet registration cost is $15. Be sure to bring your water bottle and stay hydrated. Please arrive at least an 90 minutes before your race starts in order to check out your running top and get registered.
The course walk through will begin at 12:20 p.m. for all boys and girls 12 & Under. The 13-14 Girls course walk will be at 1:00pm. The 13-14 Boys course walk will be at 1:30pm. The meet will be conducted on a rolling schedule. This means that the 8&U girls and boys will race at 1 p.m., the 9&10 girls and boys will race at about 1:15 p.m. and the 11&12 girls will start around 1:40 p.m. followed by the 11&12 boys at about 2:05 p.m. The 13&14 girls will start around 2:30p.m. and the 13&14 boys will start around 3:00p.m.
This Sunday at the Baldwin CCCNYC Meet we will also be having an open 800m race for those 8 & Under that want to participate and did not run the 2K race. The cost is $5 if they are not a YES-Athletics member. They must complete a membership form if they have not already done so. The 800m race will start immediately after the boys 13-14 4K race.
QUALIFIER MEET NOTES - If you have not run at the national meet with our team, please bring a copy of your birth certificate for national meet registration. Also, please print off, fill out and bring the 2026 national meet waiver with you to the meet. This will allow registration to go much faster for the national meet. Contact Coach Ramsey if you have any questions.
Always remember to bring drinking water to practices! Please contact Coach Ramsey if you have any questions about our cross country team.
