Track club opens registration for 2010 season

The Northwest Flyers Track Club will host its annual free information/registration breakfast on Feb. 6 for all boys, girls and their parents interested in joining the 2010 track season. The breakfast starts at 8:30 a.m. at the Cypress Creek Christian Community Center Forum, located at 6823 Cypresswood Dr. in Spring.

The breakfast provides an opportunity for youth athletes to register for the 2010 summer track season, to meet the Northwest Flyers coaches and staff and other new and returning athletes. The event will be highlighted by a prominent speaker from the world of track and field.

The Northwest Flyers Track Club is a youth (ages 6 -18) track organization, affiliated with USA Track & Field (USATF), that provides a full program of sanctioned “track” events such as sprints, hurdles, middle distance, distance and relays and sanctioned “field” events such as long jump, triple jump, high jump, pole vault, discus, shot put and javelin. The Northwest Flyers has approximately 285 members, boys and girls. The club was founded 23 years ago by Olympic gold medalist Fred Newhouse to foster the development of youth track and field in the Northwest Houston area.

The Northwest Flyers is a member of the “Win with Integrity” program, a partnership between USATF and the American College of Sports Medicine. “Win with Integrity” brings elite track and field athletes and school-aged kids together to promote healthy lifestyles, keeping active and living with integrity through the sport of track and field.
