This is a program designed primarily for sprints, jumpers and throwers but all athletes are invited to train. Athletes involved
in other sports who wish to improve their fitness for their sport are welcome to train with us.
Cross Country Team
This is strongly recommended for distance runners, especially those who are running X-country with their school.
The team trains once a week starting at the end of August until November. This team operates primarily to supplement and compliment
school training. Practices are held on Sunday afternoon at Roth Park in Woodstock.
Winter Program
The winter program is designed for all athletes and it operates from the end of November to the start of March.
Training is done on Monday and Thursday nights, with competitive meets on weekends. On Monday nights athletes

practices are from 6:30 pm -8:00pm. On Thursday nights the team travels to the University of Western to practice
at the indoor track. Practices are 6:30pm - 8:00 pm

High School Season
In order to assist in our high school athletes training the WLAC assists the Woodstock schools programs by providing
coaching and equipment. The high school season leads directly into the spring and summer program and therefore is highly recommended
that all WLAC athletes participate in their high school programs.
