I need a name for an End of the Season XC Meet for kids who don't make the Post Season Rosters. Can't use "JV"

The Giant Gobble Gobble Golf Course Romp

(assuming its on a golf course)

We're not Worthy Consolation race.

Put me down as another vote for...

"Development."

This is a great idea.

I like some use of 'developmental'

Did you ever decide what to do with your XC course? I forgot to follow that thread.

Taxi squad

How do you enforce that a coach send his B team not his A team? Seems somewhat impossible of a task. I think the best chance to make this actually happen is to have the title of the race make it painfully obvious that it is for the non-A team runners. This way even if the coach would try to send an A team or if a kid from the A team found his way into it the A kids would at least leave feeling sheepish for showing up to the race.

Thanks!

Waiting on some feedback from some of the more experienced runners who raced it. (The facility got great feedback; the course did not.)

Waiting to hear if they didn't like the surface (which we can develop) or the layout (which we can change) or the venue (which we can't do much about). Hard to justify spending someone else's money developing the land if kids simply don't like it, even I see potential that they don't.

To be continued...

How about "League of Losers"?

I dont even mind that eggnog gives me gas. Nothing like having a glass at night then waking up and blasting off a bunch of farts

Best of the Worst

I like the Development term

Like "School Name" Development Team/ Finals

'meet for a lifetime'

'feeling lucky'

'never forget'

'run thru the line'

'memory builder'

Perhaps the Johnson brothers are willing to provide a few dollars for presenting sponsorship and allow the race to be called-

letsrun.com Invitational

A naming-rights partnership for an entry-level race can create curiosity within a group of young runners that have never visited this wonderful site that promotes running. The resulting interest from these adolescents will lead to increased readership of the main page and possibly create additional chatter on the message boards. The current letsrun.com community will benefit in being able to share with the next generation a vast collective of information regarding the history of running as well as an infinite knowledge on all topics.

Add in the fact that none of these kids made their respective Varsity Postseason Squads, and they should fit right in here.
