Transportation

Students/Parents/Guardians are responsible for transportation to and from all track and field meets.  Families are welcome to arrange their own carpools with other families.  Families are welcome to attend the events and cheer on the teams.

However, due mid-day timing of the May 1st Track Meet at Windsor Secondary School, Cove Cliff has arranged transportation to this event.  Please note this event is for running events.  The bus will depart Cove Cliff at 12noon, and is ONE WAY transportation only. Students must arrange to be picked up after the event (approx. 3pm) from Windsor Secondary. 

The bus space is limited to the first 50 students, and you will need to sign up to secure a spot. Starting at 9:00am on April 24 you can CLICK HERE to request a space on the bus.  The bus booking form will be open until 3:00pm on April 26, and will reopen at 9am on April 20 if there are still spaces available.  If the link does not work, please check back later as it may be temporarily turned off to confirm the bookings. 

​
Team Jerseys​

​Students who participate in Track & Field meets are asked to wear a team jersey. The school charges a refundable $75 deposit per jersey. A School Cash Online charge will be added to participating student accounts and jerseys will be handed out to students prior to the first meet. Deposits will be refunded once the jersey is cleaned and returned at the end of the season. ​

Other Important Details​
  • ​All practices are held at Cove Cliff and are mandatory. If your child can't attend, please notify the coach the day before.
