Do you know the sound of running? The runner’s tired feet hitting the dew on the grass. The worn cleats that splash through the wet, slippery mud. The sun rays beating down on the exhausted runner. The sweat rolling off the face, the body aching with pain, muscles screaming to stop the punishment. This is the sound and mindset of the cross country runner. The mind is in constant battle with the body whispering to the mind to continue with the pace, fighting every step of the sloping hills. The body struggles with the unsteady ground trying to reach the destination with every breath. The runner is challenged to grasp every mile that has not been reached. These are the sounds of the cross country runner. But this is not a story of the runners. It is a story of the man behind these runners. The man they call coach, Coach Charles Carroll.

The 2019 Winnfield Baseball Skills Camp will be help on January 4 th - 5 th on the Winnfield Senior High School Tiger Field.

It will begin each day from 8:30am through 12 pm. Please be at the field 30 minutes prior to starting time to register on Friday morning. It is $75.00 per child for the ages 8-15 years old.
