Nike Southwest Regional is a great event for post season racing. We want to provide that experience to the athletes and do so as a team. Athletes will be registered to race under the Trials of Miles TC club name. Trials of Miles TC has brought athletes to this race for over five years and we are excited to keep offering this racing opportunity!
Housing and ground transportation will be arranged for at least the top boys’ teams of 7 and the top girls’ teams of 7. Those top 14 athletes who attend will be provided with final costs of housing, transportation (except airfare) and food upon completion of the trip with a deposit paid in advance. All other athletes who participate will be invited to spend time with the team, prepare and train with the team, but will need to arrange their own housing and transportation.
Athletes are asked to book their own flights to Phoenix, AZ (PYX). If possible, please book the same or similar flights as other athletes to optimize ground transportation to the rental house from the airport.
