CREATING ATHLETIC.NET ACCOUNT & REGISTRATION

Registration for FIYA Cross Country meets are handled via athletic.net. If your school has NOT participated in FIYA Cross Country or Track & Field in the last two years, you will likely need to first create a free team account at athletic.net. Once you create your account, you can then register for any of the FIYA Cross Country Meets offered this season. This is also the same procedure for FIYA Track & Field. Please click the button below for instructions on creating a free team account and registering your student-athletes for FIYA meets. Be sure to create your team's account at least one week before the registration deadline to ensure your account is ready on time.
FIYA Cross Country is a Fall tournament event that typically occurs between the months of September and November.
