Registration

Jets Cross Country Season Training starts on September 9th. We meet for practice at 5:45 pm at the Lions Lake Pavilion behind the Town and Country Fair Main Stage in Washington, Missouri on Monday and Thursday evenings.

Our plan is to offer training to kids twice per week, from 5:45 to 7 p.m. on Mondays and Thursdays beginning on September 9th.

There are optional racing opportunities within the St. Louis metro area, but our main goal is to encourage kids to improve their fitness.

If kids want to order racing jerseys or enter optional races, those options and schedules will be made available. There are usually nominal fees for entry which vary by event and location.

For insurance purposes, runners must have a 2019/2020 AAU Card.
