2022/2023 Track & Field Season
The Track & Field Season extends from ​April to June and is open to all Grade 4-7 students. Track and Field is a district wide program which culminates in a track meet held at Sutherland Secondary School . Braemar competes in a zone with Larson and Highlands Elementary schools. Since it is a competitive program, only a certain number of students will qualify to represent Braemar at our Zone Qualification meets. However, we will be hosting Track and Field Mini-Meets, which are open to all students in Grades 4-7 to participate.​

  • It is hoped that parents will stay at these events to support the athletes. If parents are unable to stay, they must return to pick up or arrange to pick up. Please remember to car pool if you can!
