District Championships track meets held at St. Michael's field

SWJHAA 2016 League Championships

Josh Davis - On Tuesday May 26 the track and field behind St. Michael’s school in Pincher Creek was filled with young athletes, attending the 2016 Southwest Junior High Athletic Association league championships. 8 schools were in attendance, including St Michael's School, Matthew Halton High School, Livingstone, FP Walshe, Willow Creek Composite, Crowsnest Pass Consolidated, Piikani School, and Tatsikiisaapo'p Middle School from Kainai. The event ran from 9:00am to 3:30pm. It was rainy in the morning, but the athletes pushed through it until the sunny afternoon arrived. As the Zone qualifier, the top two athletes from each district in each event got to head to Zones, which will take place in Lethbridge this year. Medals were given out to the competitors at the end of the day.
“Usually I just make assignments, and each school runs an event,” said Meet Organizer and Matthew Halton Athletic Director Randy Whitehead of organizing the event. “And every year we get a bunch of parents that step up and help with timing and recording, and it’s always greatly appreciated to have those parents help wherever needed.” He said he was happy with how smoothly the day was going, in spite of the weather. "Its going really well. It'd be nice if it stopped raining on us, but all of the kids are competing anyways." Whitehead said that the turnout of around 100 people is typical of the event.

Results are listed below.
