Christ the King CYO Track & Field
Welcome! We are a CYO track program for second through eighth grade athletes in the Pleasant Hill/Martinez/Walnut Creek area. Out team combines boys and girls from the Christ the King, St. Catherine, and St. Stephen parishes. We compete in the Diablo Valley Catholic League, which is Section 1 of the Oakland Diocese.
Our practice season begins in February, and meets take place on Saturdays from March through early May. Signups are held in January. Elementary and middle-school athletes living within the boundaries of the three parishes, or who attend the school or religious education programs are eligible to participate on our team.
Practices are held on weekday the evenings starting at 5:00 and never running later than 6:30. Meets begin in March, starting with a "mini-meet" held to instruct our many parent volunteers. A typical meet includes the following individual running events:
