Mission: The Phoenix Bobcats Track and Field Club now serve a two-fold purpose. 1.Improving the quality of life physically, academically and socially by participating in our club and other sports. 2.Encouraging athletes to succeed both on the field and in the classroom. By participating in our program, young athletes can gain the knowledge and groundwork for proper exercise to avoid childhood obesity. Obesity in our youth has now reached epidemic proportions and studies show that 31% are currently overweight or at risk. Our goal is to try to provide training guidance to combat these potential problems. We offer training for all athletes, 5 years old (our youngest member to date) to 84 years old (one of our former member). We allow athletes from all over the valley and from every social-economic background. We offer training for at-risk children and / or under-privileged kids. It has always been my life-long ambition to have every kid that wants that opportunity or desire to participate that they can without any worries. We do have fees. Not all athletes have means to pay our fees. The request would be assist those who are not able to. It will help towards, meets fees, uniform fees, and providing water, drinks and nutrition at our practices and track and field meets held throughout the valley.
