Run into the Fall Season with Nitehawks Cross Country for Grades K-8
Join in on the fun! Learn and practice under highly trained and USATF Certified coaches with decades of experience. Nitehawks Cross Country places emphasis on performance, strength, technique, and racing – all while having fun! The program includes eight meets, and of course, the annual Candy Run for Halloween. Meet fees are included. Athletes should bring water to every practice.
Because this is a cross country running program, kindergarten and first grade athletes should love to run and be able to run for long distances. If you have any questions, please reach out to us at 978-505-8318.
