Saturday and Monday Practices
Hello Tigres,
***PLEASE SEE THE REVISION BELOW IN BOLD ITALICS***
We had a fun introductory practice this past Wednesday. As we will be running short on practices due to VUSD days off over the next couple of weeks, I encourage our athletes to practice on their own this weekend. With our first meet being March 1st it will be wise to use this time to add to your fitness base. I strongly recommend practicing on your own this Saturday.
Sprinters: Do an easy five-minute run out and five-minute run back for a total of 10 minutes. Follow that up with 4×100 meter strides.
Distance: Complete an easy four-mile run.
Both categories please remember to include warm-ups and cool downs.
For Monday, repeat the same or join Coach Nation at Arroyo Verde Park for a light one-hour workout beginning at 4:30 pm, and ending at 5:30 pm.
Staying with the “discipline” theme of Wednesday, remember that track is not just about running, it’s about pushing your limits, overcoming obstacles, and striving for greatness. Every stride you take, every drop of sweat, and every ounce of effort brings you closer to your goals. Remember, success is not always measured by the finish line, but by the journey and the determination you show along the way.
Stay focused, stay disciplined, and never underestimate the power of your potential. When motivation wavers, let discipline guide you forward. Believe in yourself, support your teammates, and together, you’ll achieve incredible things.
Go out there, give it your all, and make every moment count! You have the heart of a champion – now, it’s time to show the world what you’re made of.
By taking advantage of these extra couple of days of disciplined practice, I look forward to seeing you all this coming Wednesday, February 12th at 4:30 pm at the Buena High School track in better shape.
Have a wonderful weekend,
Coach Brian

Y/I Post JV and Varsity Info
Hi Youth and Intermediate Families!
Yesterday was the last meet for many of our athletes, and I was SO impressed with their focus in their events and support for their teammates! The weather was perfect for distance in the morning and sprinters in the afternoon, and there were some impressive PRs! Watching their progress throughout the season has truly been awesome!
While the season may be coming to a close for many of our athletes, we are excited to invite you to our Tigres Picnic on Sunday, May 19th. The picnic will be held in the Quad area of Buena High School, located in the center of the school, behind the cafeteria. Tigres will provide various pizzas, and we kindly ask that Youth and Intermediate athletes bring drinks for 12 people in individual containers. Lunch will be served from 12:00-1:00, followed by announcements and a celebration of our athletes’ accomplishments broken down by age group.
If your athlete has misplaced something over the season, the lost and found will be brought to the picnic location for one last look before everything unclaimed is donated.
The following athletes will continue with practice this week (Monday-Thursday) on a slightly shorter schedule (4:30-5:45).

Y/I – JV Meet Reminders
Bring on the championship season!!
- As a reminder, ALL athletes can compete in the JV Meet tomorrow (4/27) at Thousand Oaks High School. If your athlete secured a spot in the Varsity meet for an individual event or relay, they are not eligible to run that event in JV.
- If your athlete is moving on to Varsity, they have limited events for the JV meet. Please have them talk to me on Saturday if they have any questions.
- The arrival time of 7:45 is of utmost importance for athletes doing the 3200, hurdles, and 4×100! This early time is crucial for us to warm them up properly; the 3200 and hurdles need a long warm-up, and the team bonding time and warm-up before the 4×100 is essential for their performance.
- Warm weather is predicted for tomorrow in Thousand Oaks, so please pack sunscreen and extra water for your athlete.
Please feel free to call or text with any questions,
Kristin

JV Meet and Varsity Athletes
Good morning!
What an incredible season it has been! This week marks the final practices and the last meet for many of our athletes. If you haven’t completed your four required shifts to earn priority registration for next year, please get in touch with Jeremy Patelzick at tigres.ventura@gmail.com. We need to fill several shifts for the next three meets. If your athlete is finishing their season this week, completing a shift at the JV meet might be the easiest option for your family.
Now that all the results have been compiled, we know which athletes are moving on to Varsity on May 4th, and we’re going to have an excellent representation at the meet! Please click on this document and let me know immediately if your athlete won’t be present. The relay teams need to be set, so if you know there will be a conflict on May 4th OR May 11th, I need to know about it as soon as possible.
Thank you for all of your support!

Y/I – Last week of regular practice and JV Meet on 4/27
Hi Youth and Intermediate Families 🙂
Our meet today with the Thousand Oaks Flyers marked the end of our regular season meets. We finally had some dry weather (even a bit of sunshine!), and our athletes came out with great attitudes and competed hard! Many athletes tried new events, and there were SO MANY new PRs. Hopefully, your athlete had fun!!
We are now moving on to the championship season. As a reminder, ALL athletes are eligible to compete in the JV Meet this week (4/27) again at Thousand Oaks High School. However, if your athlete secured a spot in the Varsity meet for an individual event, they are not eligible to run that event in JV. Also, in order to compete in an event at the JV Meet this weekend, they must have competed in that event during our regular season.
We will have our normal practice schedule this week; Wednesday’s practice will be a quick workout followed by fun and games.
Once the list of athletes who have qualified for Varisty is set, I will send an update with the individual names and the relay teams representing Tigres at the Varsity Meet on 5/4.
Please reach out with your questions,
Kristin

Please reach out with questions,
Kristin
Picture Day Reminder
Hi Families,
This is a quick reminder that our Tigres picture day is tomorrow, Wednesday, 4/17. Please have your athlete arrive to practice on time dressed in their Tigres singlet and black shorts. Pictures will be at the beginning of practice.
Thank you!
