Galveston Island Beach Run 2020

Galveston,, TX

Meet Information

Dear Cross Country Coaches,
Galveston Ball will be hosting its scholastic cross country meet on Friday, September 18, 2020.
The entry fee will be $75.00 per team, per gender. ($150.00 for both)
Depending on entries, there will be two divisions: Division I will be composed of stronger
5A/6A schools. Division II will consist of smaller schools and other large school. If you have a
preference, please let me know early. Both divisions will be divided equally. The course will be on the
beach 95 -100 % on packed sand. We will send a map with details as time gets closer. All timing will
be done electronically this year.
At least 5 student-athletes from the same school must be entered for a team to be considered for
the team title. There will be a limit of 7 - 10 runners per school in each varsity division. This should
help lighten the JV races. All varsity races will be 4 or 5K. This will be determined by the heat. There is
no limit to the number of runners you may enter in the JV and freshmen divisions. Below is a tentative
time schedule.

7:30 am All Divisions Check-In
8:00 am Division I Varsity Boys
8:30 am Division II Varsity Boys
9:00 am Division I Varsity Girls
9:30 am Division II Varsity Girls
10:00 am Junior Varsity (Boys) 2 mile course
10:20 am Junior Varsity (Girls) 2 mile course
10:40 am Freshmen (Boys) 2 mile course
11:00 am Freshmen (Girls) 2 mile course
These times are approximate. We will run on a rolling schedule after the first race but plan to
finish by noon. There will be awards for the first 20 finishers in each division. In addition, the team
champion on the varsity levels will receive a plaque.
