1 A member of AAU (Amateur Athletic Union) & USATF (United States of America Track & Field) Registration Packet

2 3 Dear Prospective INSANE FITNESS TRACK CLUB Athletes and Parents, Thank you for your interest in the. We are an AAU (Amateur Athletic Union) and USATF (United States of America Track & Field) sanctioned club. Enclosed in this packet are the necessary forms to join IFTC. Our competition season begins in March of each year, but we begin training and conditioning in November. High school athletes will participate in our practice sessions as their high school season permits. The INSANE FITNESS TRACK CLUB Track Club is an all inclusive track club that services young athletes ages 4 years to 18 years of age, and does not deny membership or discriminate against any athlete on the basis of race, color, national origin, religion, creed, sexual orientation or disability. We service young athletes in the Tri-City area (Phenix City, Columbus and Fort Benning). Our student- athletes compete in both AAU and USATF sanctioned meets across the country. We are an organization that focuses on the development of student athletes in an environment that promotes self-esteem and confidence. We witness our athletes achieve their personal goals through determination, discipline and enjoyment, paired along with the strong support of their peers, family and community. The Track program is not about just running and athletic conditioning; moreover, it is a training ground for our next generation of leaders. Team members learn the lessons that competition teaches. To realize any goal both on the athletic field and in life, they learn to combine self-discipline, training, and dedication; lessons that carry over into all aspects of their lives. The forms attached must be thoroughly completed. They give your child permission to run and the coaching staff permission to sign entry forms on behalf of the parent. All forms must be signed by a parent or legal guardian. Please note that our training is more demanding than the average school/recreation program, so an annual physical examination is required. The heat plays a big part in our training and it s important that the athletes are capable of coping in extreme heat like conditions. We have a great coaching staff of highly educated individuals who enjoy working with kids. We have gifts that we want to pass along to your child (ren) that can assist them in becoming the best they can be on the track and in the classroom. Our program will teach life lessons to help our student athletes grow. This program is a great place to make new friends, travel outside of East Alabama and West Georgia and prepare them for their future. We look forward to working with your athlete. Welcome to the Insane Fitness Track Club! Sincerely, The Insane Fitness Track Club Coaches and Staff

13 14 Media Policy (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, You tube, etc.) 1. Be accurate and transparent- If an athlete is commenting on the Club or the Club's industry, he/she should disclose their name and the fact that he/she is an athlete of the Club. This is not only the ethical thing to do, but it prevents others from claiming that an athlete was trying to hide his affiliation with the Club. Using aliases or pseudonyms to comment on industry-related topics should be discouraged. Honesty and transparency are crucial to maintaining a Club's credibility. Athletes should fact check all comments to ensure that they are accurate and based in fact before posting them on any site. Parent Initials Athlete Initials 2. Use disclaimers- If an athlete is discussing an industry-related topic and is not making statements on behalf of the Club, he/she should make clear that the statements are solely their own. He/she can do this through a simple disclaimer within the posting stating, "I run for INSANE FITNESS TRACK CLUB. However, this is my own opinion, not the opinion of IFTC." Parents Initials Athletes Initials 3. Maintain the privacy of others- Athletes should refrain from sharing personal information (including photographs) of other athletes and club members unless they have permission to do so. Private information should remain private. Parent Initials Athlete Initials 4. Be respectful and tolerant- Whether or not an athlete is speaking on behalf of the Club, he still is seen as a representative of the Club to the general public, and should act accordingly. Athletes should avoid posting material that could be seen as inappropriate, demeaning, or offensive. If an athlete is part of a conversation that becomes profane or disrespectful, he/she should withdraw from it. Parent Initials Athlete Initials 5. Inappropriate social media content- As a guide, content should be removed that is: abusive, offensive in nature or contains offensive language, bullying, harassing, defaming or giving offence to other people, contains personal and/or cultural attacks or insults, promotes hate of any kind, potentially libelous or defamatory detrimental in any way.

The INSANE FITNESS TRACK CLUB has adopted several policies to limit the club's liability exposure. Parent Initials Athlete Initials 6. Dealing with inappropriate content- The aim of social media is to promote conversation. Moderation is not about removing comments and content that you don't like or disagree with - it's about ensuring content is relevant, on-topic and respectful.

If inappropriate content is posted that is deemed detrimental to the Insane Fitness Track Club, it may result in an athlete s dismissal from the club.

14 15 Event Selection Guidelines Summer track Guidelines *Summer track is a very competitive season and is expensive* Each athlete should set short, intermediate and long term personal goals. Each athlete s previous experience will be reviewed and taken into consideration when identifying events for the athletes. Performance at practice will be taken into consideration when determining events for new athletes. Athletes events can be changed if they are not competitive in their desired event to place them in an event in which they can be competitive. The coaching staff has the final say in what event each athlete will compete in and this can be discussed with the athlete s family outside of practice if they do not agree with our decision. Relay Selection Guidelines Relay Selection Guidelines will be used to place athletes on all relays. No athlete is guaranteed a position on any relay team. Athletes will be placed in the best strategic place on a relay that will best suit the team. The position on the relay will be at the sole discretion of the coach. No athlete will participate on a relay if they miss two practices the week preceding the meet. The relay is a team event and IFTC will not take a member from one relay team to fill another relay spot in the event a member of one team does not show at a meet or gets hurt. The final decision on all relays will be the responsibility of the coaching staff. The Relay is a BONUS and no spot is guaranteed.
