OATCCC Mission

Welcome to the Ohio Association of Track and Cross Country Coaches. This association has three key purposes. 1) To promote track & field, and cross country in all the junior and senior high schools of Ohio; and also extend support to those programs in the state's colleges and universities. 2) To cooperate with and assist the OHSAA and Ohio's colleges and universities in all the matters pertaining to maintenance, promotion, and improvement of track & field, and cross country. 3) To Recognize and award outstanding achievement and/or contribution by athletes, coaches, officials, and supporters.

Membership in the OATCCC is now an annual membership. If you have joined the association this year, your membership is good for all of 2011. If you attended the clinic in January then your membership is included. Join the OATCCC for the calendar year 2011 by downloading the membership form today. We use the current members list for our email contact page. This list serves as our contact information for OATCCC business and surveys as well. Please keep your email address current with the OATCCC. It is recommended that you use personal email accounts as school email accounts often filter out bulk email with attachments. Please check your membership here: OATCCC Memberships.

OATCCC Service Project

Dear Coaches,

If you are attending this years clinic. We are requesting that as you make your way into Columbus for the weekend that you bring a couple of cans of food along with you to join us in our service project. At registration and outside the coat room we will be collecting food for the Mid-Ohio Foodbank to help them restock their shelves after the holiday season. January and February are difficult months for food pantries and it is our goal to help one that serves so many children. The partnership the Mid-Ohio Foodbank shares with more than 500 partner agencies across their 20-county service area is crucial to their mission. It’s these food pantries, soup kitchens, shelters, after-school programs, and senior housing sites that ensure the food they deliver gets to the people who need it most. And their impact is incredible: providing more than 51,000 meals each day. If each one of us who attends the clinic would bring just two items, we would amass more than 3200 items or roughly 3000 lbs of food for our project. Thank you for your considerations.

Respectfully,

Coach Dorne
