Coaches Needed - It has been 2 years since we have had a full program. Due to to not having our seasons we are in need of many new coaches! Track and Field is a very unique sport and needs many different area's of coaching events! We can train you and help guide you in any one of those area's. We need many head coaches and assistant coaches. No experience needed, just a willingness to learn and care for the athletes! Storm is a family of many different backgrounds! If you would like to coach for our great organization, please contact Coach Elaine at coachelaine@runstorm.org. We are an all volunteer organization and completely rely on volunteers to make us great!!

Practice Facilities
Many have been asking about our practice locations this year due to the Lacrosse team at most schools bumping us from the track. We have diligently been working on securing practice days at all of the 7 local high schools and COC. We are working on Saturdays Canyon High and 1 day a week at COC (still pending approval). I have contacted all 7 schools to try to secure days. Here is the results I have gotten so far for practice days. We do hope that most of our Saturday's will be at either Castaic or Canyon High but we are actively trying to get more practice days. For now we think we will have one night a week at COC (Tuesday) and 2 nights at Castaic High ( Monday and Wednesday or Thursday) We ask you attend at least 2 practices per week!
Please understand that this may change and we may not get our permit until late January! We will send dates and locations as soon as they ae confirmed! For now, here are tentative dates to start the season!

Registration- is open now and early bird savings will end on December 15th
Parent Orientation- Feb 8th - 5:30 pm

Track & Field is a competitive sport, all athletes must attend at least three meets on Saturday, to be on the team. There will be no practice only athletes.

We have reached the point that we just can no longer accept athletes who only want to practice on our team, that takes away our coaches time in training our athletes who do compete, so our policy is that we do not accept practice only athletes. Saturday Meets are mandatory

Please click the following button to register for the 2020 Track & Field Program. Please note that the terms and conditions to registration belong to the Valley Youth Conference. This form is an exact electronic copy of the paperwork we had last year which was on paper.
The payment option is a separate option.
Uniform purchase is also a separate option. (Every athlete must compete in a uniform, but you are not required to buy a new one every year, if your uniform from last year or cross country is still good you may use that one, if your child has out grown it, you might want to purchase a new one).
New athletes we must have a copy of the proof of age (see below).

A proof of age document must be uploaded using the form on the runstorm.org website for each athlete that is New to the club. If you competed in 2019 Track & Field or 2019 Cross Country for Storm we have your proof of age document still on file.

1. Birth Certificate.
2. Photocopy of Birth Certificate.
3. Military Birth Certificate.
