EQUIPMENT
SCHOOL ISSUED UNIFORMS
Once an athlete is issued a school uniform he/she is fully responsible for returning the same uniform that was issued at the beginning of the season. Uniforms should be washed in cold water and checked often for stains/damage. Athletes must return uniforms no later than the State Meet (3rd week in May). State athletes should return uniforms the week after the State Meet. NO EXCEPTIONS! All athletes who fail to return the uniform will have a fee placed on their Infinite Campus bill. Athletes will be charged for damaged uniforms, including missing hoods or zippers, stains, or rips--athletes are responsible for checking their uniform for damages PRIOR to checking them out for the season.
SCHOOL ISSUED EQUIPMENT
It is imperative that athletes treat all school equipment as if it were their own. Any damaged equipment due to neglect, loss, and/or misuse will be the sole responsibility of the athlete.
Pole Vaults, discus, and shot puts must be certified prior to all competitions. No athlete should use competition implements in practice or competition without adult supervision.
Shoes
Good Training Shoes are vital to the health and well-being of each athlete! Street shoes, basketball shoes, and aged running shoes will cause injuries. Keep your athlete’s feet healthy and purchase a new pair of running shoes at least every 350 miles. We have Spike Night scheduled at the Runner’s Roost in Golden on Feb 25th and Road Runner Sports in Westminster on March 6. The Track & Field Team will receive cash for attendance and all purchases made at Spike Night. If you cannot make it, we highly recommend that you go to a specialized running shoe store because they will fit the athlete with the correct shoe. Runner’s Roost, Boulder Running Company and Road Runner’s Sports offer free gait analysis and discounts to high school students—just mention that you are competing for Brighton High.
Spikes (not cleats) / Racing Flats
⅛” Spikes or flats are a must for anyone looking to improve their performances in all events (Varsity or JV). Sprinters can expect to see a .5 – 2.5 second decrease in times in the 100m – 400m distances while distance runners can expect 10-90 second decrease in their race times. Those are HUGE improvements! Spikes are available for jumps, sprints, throws, and running events through Specialty running stores or Eastbay online. If you genuinely care to see improvement in competitions, this is a necessary investment. Tracks require ⅛ inch spikes.
