Cross-country district championships coming to the Battlefords
John Paul Collegiate II is hosting the Battle West District Cross Country Championships at Finlayson Island on Friday, October 6.
Roughly 200 athletes are expected to participate, ranging from the novice age group (11 and under) all the way to seniors (17).
There is a two km. course and a three km. course on the island, but one of the senior boys races will be six km long, meaning the runners will do a loop.
Cross country co-coaches Kristina Binette and Brenda Miller expect about a dozen runners will compete from JP II, with the hope of qualifying for provincials. This year, Delisle is hosting provincials on October 15.
