Team Captain

Mar 2021 - Jun 2021
As a track captain, I lead and operate the distance division of the track team via supervising practices and guided new team members as they joined. In addition, I was also put in charge of promoting and advertising the track and field team via school announcements, designing and creating posters, and publicizing our track meets to generate interest. The track team became the largest athletic team it has ever been that year, with over 60 athletes in the club.

Aug 2019 - Dec 2020
Being a cross-country captain I was responsible for coordinating team-building activities and organizing bonding events to motivate and strengthen chemistry within the team. I organized and scheduled team practices with the coach and fellow co-captains to better the performances of our team throughout the year by tailoring workouts to specific members. The team ended up finishing top three in counties and qualified for state groups.
