What are my chances of making the Varsity Track Team as a freshman?

Question

I'm starting high school in the fall as a Freshman and wonder what my chances are for making the girls varsity team. Current Personal bests are

100m - 12.24

200 m - 25.5

400m - 59

Answer 1

You can try JV and then see if you can move up.

I guess it really depends if you can make top 3.

Answer 2

It depends on the other girls on the team and how good they are. I would say you have a fair chance of making it. If you were at my school you would but some schools have REALLY good teams.

Answer 3

i just did it in 07 as a freshman and it was awesome

it pretty much depends on your school and the people on the team.

and if you start out the season with those times and you improve you prob will do good.

just watch out for those senior machines! lol

Answer 4

you will might make varsity that way

try

100m-11.8

200m-24.5

400m.57

not many girls in jv can run under a min in the 4 so if you lower that time then you wiill make varsity for sure. oh and chances are your coach will move you to varsity at the league meet. most likely you will be put on  a relay

Answer 5

With those times, you would most likely make JV. But it's alright. If you work on your form a bit more, you could most likely move up to Varsity. You should also do Winter Track so you woun't be out of shape for Spring Track. Also when you work on your form, pump your arms from your pockets to ears.

Answer 6

it really depends on your school, my school no it wouldnt, you would have to hit about:

100m - 11.9

200m-23.7

400m- 56

luckily meets give you the adrenaline to be able to hit these times and u still got a long time before track, now to win ur league and compete in state I would say get these times

100m- 10.7

200m-22.5

400m-50

research workouts to improve

for 100m I would do repeats of 8x50m to get my start great

then for the 200m sprint 5x250m to get the extra endurance in

400m sprint 4x450 yards or 6x100-200 meter sprints

the best way to get faster is to do shorter sprints I believe but others say doing at least 50m more cuz ull gain endurance

Answer 7

If you're a girl you will make it but if you're a boy, sorry, probably not.

Answer 8

sorry to tell u, but u can't until the years come, its just how track is, no matter how talented u r, i know freshies who can run a 4min mile, but there still in fresh/soph, so...it its what it its *shrug* but anything is possible
