Don't have Standard?
If you are a thrower or distance runner and do not have a Team standard and would like to request an invite to try out in September as a walk-on, please contact the Head Coach with your information (personal bests and training background), subject line "walk-on request". HC Contact info, Jessica Zelinka  - jessica.zelinka@ucalgary.ca.

Alternatively, Calgary has multiple Track & Field Clubs to join that can provide competitive opportunities to achieve Team standards for next season. 
  
Below is a list of the local track clubs in Calgary. (A-Z)   *Clubs have different rates and training locations. All clubs offer a two-week trial option.
*The University of Calgary is not affiliated with a specific club
 
Requirement to Participate: *IMPORTANT! 
New incoming athletes MUST complete the medical onboarding before training begins. Instructions are in Section 3 of the Dinos Intake, "Medical/E-PPE", GoDinos.com/intake.  Athletes must have a physical completed by a physician before the first day of practice. Please book with your Family Physician before September, as it may take a few weeks to get an appointment. 
 
NOTE: Walk-ons can bring a physician's note with clearance to train in a varsity program for the tryout period. Dinos medical intake is not necessary unless they are selected to the Team.
