Outdoor Season
SEASON OVERVIEW
Our Outdoor Season offers skill development for athletes interested in competing in the sport of track and field. The season moves as fast as our Lightning athletes. Prior experience is not required and there are no try-outs; all levels welcome. We pride ourselves on developing youth athletes.
Our High School Outdoor Season is designed for athletes competing with their high school team to supplement their VHSL season with additional speed, conditioning and Strength Training, in addition to the athlete’s desire to compete on the Club summer circuit i.e., AAU and USATF Jr. Olympics.
The regular Outdoor Season runs from April 6 through May 31.
Outdoor Season is open for athletes ages 7 - high school.
Athletes competing in the post season / championship Outdoor Season continue through the end of July.
PRACTICE DAYS
Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays
6pm - 7:30pm (all age groups)
PRACTICE LOCATION
Practice is held outdoors within the Woodbridge, VA area.
MEET SCHEDULE
We participate in scrimmages, as well as competitive meets throughout the season. Meets are typically held on Saturdays starting late April in the Washington, DC Metro, Northern Virginia and Richmond areas. Meet fees vary by location and range between $20-$50/athlete per meet. We typically participate in 3-5 meets during the regular season.
Regional Championship meets are held in Virginia, Maryland and North Carolina. Junior Olympics meet locations vary throughout the country.
The final Meet Schedule will be distributed during the season.
Our Legendary Lightning Relay Games will be held May 17, 2025 in Prince William County.
