All male students are invited
to participate (no cuts).
Through hard work and dedication to the
team, they may earn a uniform and a position in our meets.
Eligibility
Athletes are expected to live up to the
high standards that are set by Boylan Catholic High School. Coaches
will receive an eligibility notice each week.
Practice and Meet Attendance
Each athlete is expected to be in attendance for the entirety of each practice and meet. Whatever the reason,
athletes will need a note from a parent or a sponsor when they are
absent from practice or a meet. This note is still
needed if you are absent or leave early from school. This note is to
be presented before the absence or on the day of the return. Without
this note, your absence will be considered unexcused. If an athlete
misses practice the day before a meet, he may be suspended from that meet.
Unexcused absences from
practice
Unexcused absences include, but are
not limited to work, hair appointment, birthdays, my uniform was in
the wash, my parents are taking me to Chicago tonight, I forgot to
change/ or set the alarm on my clock, etc.
1st : One (1) meet
suspension (and you must attend and assist at the suspended meet)
2nd: Possible dismissal
from the team.
Unexcused absences from meets
1st: Possible dismissal from the team.
Total Absences
Once the total of 6 (Un + Ex) has been reached, dismissal from the
team may occur.
Practice
Participation
We (coaches) will accept any level of talent in our program, but we
will only tolerate one level of attitude. Every athlete is expected
to attend and participate in every practice. Being there is
just not good enough. If an athlete is not feeling well he
should dress and participate within his limits. Without a parental
note or a notice from our trainer or doctor, a “no dress” will
count as an unexcused absence.
Tardiness
Whenever you are late for practice, you need a note from a parent,
teacher, or sponsor upon arrival. The tardiness will be considered
as unexcused if you do not have a note or do not go directly to
practice.
Unexcused
Tardies
Three (3) unexcused tardies = one (1) unexcused absence
Inappropriate
Behavior
If a coach dismisses an athlete from practice due to inappropriate
behavior, he may receive an unexcused absence for the day or removal
from the team.
Transportation
We have three travel scenarios.
1. Two-way bus - Parents may sign-out their child at the end of the meet. Due to liability, students will only be allowed to leave with their parents. If you wish to travel with another adult, a note from your parents is required. (Major out-of-town events)
2. One-way bus – students who do not drive to school, must
take the bus to the event. Parents are to pickup at the
event, not at Boylan. (Local events)
3.NO BUS – students are responsible to find their own
transportation to and from the meet. (Local Invites or Relays)
ALL athletes are required to be at each Track competition until they are dismissed by the coaching staff at the conclusion of the LAST event. Team prayer and announcements will follow the last event.
