NS Junior High Track Camp
What:
A track and field camp teaching the basics of speed, hurdles, or throws.
The speed camp will focus on warming up properly, sprint form, and drills to help you be more explosive!
The hurdle camp will also focus on speed but is geared towards both beginner and more advanced hurdlers.
*NEW* The throws camp will focus on both shot put and discus and drills to improve form.
The high school girls and boys staff will be there to help you improve!
When: All camps will be held from 3:30 to 4:45 pm
Who:
Any North Scott Junior High student (boy or girl). If you are out for a school sport (boys basketball, girls wrestling, swimming) during this time, this is NOT for you.

On the turf in the North Scott Hitting Facility (located next to the HS baseball field). Students will have access to ride the activity bus home. Students can ride the afterschool bus from the JH to the HS and walk the rest of the way.
