• Spectators can hike up to the race finish area to watch the races.

Bring those cowbells and make some noise at the finish line! 

RACE SUITS:
Sparta race suits have been issued to all racers. Race suits are only to be worn on race days. When not being worn please take good care of them and hang them up. All race suits will be collected at the end of the season. Do not change race suits with other racers and do not remove pads from the race suits.

TRANSPORTATION NOTE:
Any racers who will NOT be returning to the school on the bus after a practice or after a race must provide a parent signed and dated note requesting so or text from the parent to Coach Calafati. Notification must be provided before we depart the high school for the mountain. If you wish to take your child home on the day of the race, please note your child is required to stay and support their teammates to the end of the event. Once all our racers have finished racing and our post-race team meeting is over, your child may leave the mountain with you. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
