Since practices are conducted only two or three times per week, it is important that athletes and parents make every effort to be punctual. Any athlete who wants to supplement the training schedule should only do so after speaking with the coach and developing an approved supplemental work-out program. Attitude and Conduct: Each PRTC member, athlete and
parent, is expected to display good conduct and behavior at all times al1d to
exhibit good sportsmanship in victory as well as defeat. Any member who has

provide encouragement and motivation if an athlete is to achieve success in
sports. However, an athletic involvement in USA Track and Field and in PRTC
