Welcome Back, XC Runners
I'm very excited for this upcoming year. We have possibly one of the best girl's team in Fairhaven Cross Country history, and the boys should be very competitive. We will make our presence known in the SCC this season, and state competitors will know who we are.
The Athletic Department will be going paperless this year!!! That means the Athletic Handbook, Waiver to Treat and Concussion forms are now all on-line. Please complete the online forms by Parent’s Night on Monday, 8/19. The link is below. Also, bring in your up-to-date physical form, if you need one. You should call your doctor’s office to verify your last physical. You must have had one within the last 13 months.
Special thanks to all of the Athletes/Parent(s) who attended the meeting on Monday, 8/19, at 6:30 p.m. in the PAC – a new on-line system and other topics were presented. Also, at 7 p.m., parents met with me to get all forms/expectations.
The first practice will be held on Thursday, 8/22, at 9 a.m. at Cushman Park, Bridge Street side of track. Practices will be held 6 days a week with Sundays off. Only those athletes who have current physicals (within 13 months) will be able to participate in practice. If you are not in good standing with your physicals, get this straightened out ASAP as it will hurt your season. Get in to see your doctor or go to a walk in.
Team pictures will be taken next Thursday, Aug. 29th at 1 p.m. in the gym. Don't be late.
Just a few reminders...Make sure you are taking care of your body (eating, sleeping, and staying hydrated). Start working on your abs if you haven't already. Please download the goals sheet (End of Team/Individual Goals page) and give it to me on the first day of practice.

FAIRHAVEN CROSS COUNTRY ATHLETE INFORMATION GUIDE
Coach Jo-Anne Charette, 508-737-8337, [email protected]
Team web site: fairhavencrosscountry.weebly.com (find all information/stats needed here)
Weekday Practices: 3 to 5 p.m. Weekend Practices: Saturdays/Mondays (Holidays) 9-11 a.m.
Welcome to the Fairhaven High School Cross Country Program. After a four-year hitatus, the school district will be fully funding the cross country program this school year. This is great news. The West Island 5K has funded us the last two years and offers a $500 scholarship to every participating senior, regardless of ability. Through the West Island 5K, we have a thriving community of support, which means we must be even more dedicated and committed to making this program a success. On that note, last year, our girls’ team placed second in the SCC, and Bay Gammans was named Player of the Year. This year, we are entering the season with the goal of winning the SCC, and this year’s team has the ability to do just that. If they work to their potential, the girls could be the best team that FHS has ever had. The boys’ team has also become much more competitive in the league, and we expect them to get even stronger this year. One goal is for our athletes to be leaders in the league and in the state meets. We welcome you as a prospective member of our teams where you will help us to realize this goal.
Cross Country is a sport that will challenge the most disciplined athlete. It is also a sport that enables the least talented athlete to participate and see growth and success. Cross Country is about desire, discipline, determination, and dedication. In short, athletes who participate in this sport must have the drive to challenge themselves, the fire to keep going, and guts to succeed through adversity. Our sport attracts two types of students, the runners and the ones who want to get in shape for their winter and spring sports, such as basketball, hockey, softball/baseball, lacrosse, or tennis. We will help both sets of athletes to meet their goals.
We expect much from those who participate. Your participation on this team is a choice. It is not a right. As a member of this team, you will work to become better athletes and better people. Our team is centered on athletes who are willing to dedicate themselves to making a positive impact on their teammates, their team, the school, and, most importantly, themselves. Our training and our races require all athletes to work to the same level, train with the same attention to detail, and run the same race distance with focus and intensity. A student who learns to give of themselves and sacrifice their needs for the sake of the team will be an asset to this program.
This program is success-oriented. The athlete who is also success-oriented will ultimately achieve his/her goals. To become successful one must address each of the following:
A varsity team consists of seven athletes with girls and boys competing separately for team and individual awards. Five athletes score for each side, with two more serving as “displacers” by knocking back the opponents’ scoring runners, but not contributing to the team total. A runner is given the same number of points as the finish position, with the lowest team total declared the winner. Consequently, a team which runs 1-2-3-4-5-6-7 would score a “perfect” score of 15 (1-2-3-4-5) with 6 and 7 knocking back the opponents, who would then score 8-9-10-11-12 for a total of 50. More teams equal more points and high scores, but the fewest points still wins. Invitational meets may have 30-15 teams in one race and a score of 100 may be a clear winner in a field of 300+ runners.
During the cross country season, our athletes have races which test their ability against, local, regional, and state class competition. The simplest race is the traditional Tuesday “dual” meet, a race of 2-3 teams. Each course is roughly 5K and athletes compete for lettering points. Invitational races are held on Saturdays. Many teams from across the state compete. Races are usually held for varsity and JV and sometimes freshmen. Individual and team awards are won at these competitions. The SCC Championship is held at Washburn Park in Marion. In addition to team honors, the top 15 athletes are recognized as conference all stars. As the teams advance through the State Championship series, the competition continues to increase. All state qualifications for Eastern MA: Boys and Girls (Div. II - Small Schools), include the top four (4) teams from Division 4, 5 & 6 sectional and top ten (10) individuals from Division 4, 5 & 6 not on one of the qualifying teams. There is also one wildcard – a 5th place team with the best time from Division 4, 5 or 6. Our goal is to qualify for All States this season as a team or individually.
Please be aware that with the commitment to participate in cross-country come several responsibilities and expectations…
Serve as a positive role model and representative of Fairhaven Public Schools.
Be a positive, contributing team member. Each individual has gifts and talents that they bring to team, not only athletically, but also in a multitude of other ways! Share those talents with the team in a positive way.
Listen, Execute, and Communicate! You have unlimited potential. Listen to your coach(es) and teammates and try your hardest to execute their plan for you. If you have concerns about your growth as a runner, talk to your coach! I can't help solve a problem if I don't know what it is. J
Be respectful of everyone at all times, especially teammates, coaches, competitors, and officials.
· "Student" comes before "Athlete" at all times. To be eligible for participation in athletics a student must secure during the last marking period preceding the contest a passing grade in five (5) courses (excluding study hall and school service). Note: In addition to the MIAA Scholastic Eligibility Requirement, Fairhaven High School has implemented an additional provision. To be eligible for Fall sports for the next school year, students are required to have passed five (5) courses (excluding study hall and school service) from the previous academic term. Eligibility to participate under this provision may be subject to review by the principal.
· Most parents, and this coaching staff, are interested in grades much higher than the minimum. In fact, distance running and the dedication that goes into it go along quite nicely with superior grades. We will have one team goal to address academics, and athletes will also make individual ones.
· Academic excellence also includes good behavior in the classroom and proper conduct with teachers and other students.
Athlete expectations at meets/invitationals
·The team completes team warm-up/warm-downs together, and sits together and supports their teammates during all meets.
·Athletes will follow the directions of the team’s leaders and captains. These athletes have been directed to ensure that our pre-race and post-race routines are followed. There is no argument or discussion on meet day.
·The primary focus of a meet is to perform for your team, not to hang out with athletes from other teams or schools or with friends and family.
·Athletes will remain with their team until the team is dismissed at the end of the meet. We need to warm-down together, and may need to complete an additional workout after our race in order to build our endurance and level of success. Also, putting all equipment away is required by all teammates for home meets.
All team members must ride the team bus (school provided transportation) to and from competitions.
· An extra pair of socks
· Warm-ups/sweats
· Towel
· an extra pair of training shoes, for wet, muddy days
· Shoe inserts, as needed
· Snack pack
· Big, big water bottle
· Gatorade
· Toiletry kit for specific needs (Ex.: Petroleum jelly, Bug spray, Sun Protection Lotion)
Varity Letter Criteria Those who epitomize the core values of this program earn varsity letters. The coaching staff will not award a letter to a student-athlete who does not represent his/her team in accordance with our core values. Athletes must meet one of the requirements
· Top 15 in Conference Meet · Place seventh or better in at least one-half of dual meets.
· Run less than 18:00 (boys) or 20:00 (girls) during the season on an established course
· Meet participation requirements (seniors)
Discretionary letters may be awarded to an athlete who does not fulfill the above criteria if, in the eyes of the coaching staff, that athlete personifies the level of commitment, discipline, and pride in team and school that represents the sport with honor. Varsity letter earners are expected to attend all practices, compete in assigned meets, participate in championship meets, and reflect the teams’ positive image at all times.
Remember, CROSS COUNTRY IS A TEAM SPORT! No one person, no matter how good is bigger than the team. We will need to work together to reach our goals!
As always, please come talk to me if you have any questions or concerns. I am here for you and I want you to be successful! If you have questions outside of practice please feel free to call my cell phone or email me.
