SC Flight Elite Youth Track Club in Irvine is an elite competitive club, open to youth athletes currently attending grades 7-12, who have shown through prior competition or tryout, significant potential in track & field. If you've outgrown your current situation or are just looking for that push you need to reach the next level, we'd be glad to schedule a tryout with you. We pride ourselves on the amount of one on one attention we give to our athletes. As a result, our club has never been, nor do we foresee a day when it will ever be more than a dozen select athletes. Yes, our standards can be pretty high, but we're counting on yours being just as high.
If you believe you are (or can be) among the best, please complete the attached application and forward to info@scflighttrackclub.com. The waiver, consent to treat and medical clearance form must be completed and received by the us prior to the athlete's first workout with the club. Unlike virtually every other club, we do not charge a membership fee. We depend on the kindness of our donors who see that the work we do adds value to the lives of our young athletes and our community as a whole. Completion of the forms does NOT guarantee membership in the club. See section below for minimum performance standards,
Additionally, all athletes must be current members of USA Track & Field. Application can be completed on line at http://www.usatf.org/Products---Services/Individual-Memberships.aspx
The performance standards listed here are minimums. Many of our athletes far exceed these standards. Athletes do not need to meet standard for every event in which they compete, but must meet at least one of the performance standards to be considered for membership.
The relationship between coach and athlete is crucial. In order to teach, motivate and push an athlete to reach their potential, there must be a great deal of trust, mutual respect and more generally, a "connection" between coach and athlete. Even if your young athlete meets the minimum standards, we reserve the right not to extend an invitation to join our club based on our sole assessment of whether we feel we are the right fit to help your athlete reach his or her potential.
We don't run like most clubs. We do not charge fees of any type. The only thing an athlete owes at the end of our year, is their nominal meet entry fees, that we front throughout the competition season. We are steadfastly non-profit and believe that the ONLY criteria to get a spot on our team is performance. While every donation is appreciated, no amount of giving to the program will ever influence our selection of athletes. In fact, we've parted ways with a couple athletes over similar issues.
