two years. SCXC Elite Athletes are among the top ranked athletes at the State,

Starting Spring 2010, South Coast XC Elite program is expanding, offering team and
individual coaching to athletes from youth (9 years old) to adults.
The program is implemented at four levels, depending on the long range goals, level
of commitment, and current level of experience:
SCXC Elite is recruiting male and female athletes age 9 and above who would like to
try running as a sport. Experience, prior running, or fitness is not required, all that is
required is a good attitude and a budding desire, the program will take care of the
rest.

introduced at a progressive level, ensuring consistent improvement and results.
