Youth Recreation Track Program


The Paola Recreation Commission is excited to offer a youth track program to kids ages 4 years old to 6th grade.  The program is designed to introduce the sports of track and field in a fun and safe environment. Participants will get the opportunity to learn and develop track specific skills from the PHS Track team and coaches.  The program will consist of one to two practices and a home track meet.  The PHS Track team and coaches will help teach the basics of the events offered along with running the track meet.  Participants can compete in three events of their choosing and ribbons will be awarded to the top three participants in each event.
