Tri-City Thunder

Tri-City Thunder, the premiere track club of the Columbia Basin, is excited to begin our Cross Country season! The season runs from mid September through November with practices on Tuesdays and Thursdays, unless otherwise noted.  Athletes who qualify for Nationals will continue to train through mid December.  

ALL athletes MUST have a valid and current USATF membership with Tri-City Thunder listed as your affiliated club. This membership may be purchased through www.usatf.org.  If you do not have this membership, please obtain one before you continue your registration. During USATF membership registration it will ask you what club you are affiliated with, and once you put in your zip code "Tri-City Thunder" will be an option you select.

Tri-City Thunder is a USA Track and Field Club focused on providing opportunities for athletes of all ages to experience the sport of track and field while creating lasting friendships and developing leadership skills.

Tri-City Thunder promotes the development of good work ethic through structured team practices. Athletes are encouraged to focus on their development and strive to achieve personal bests.

High school age athletes are asked to serve as mentors for the younger athletes. In this capacity, the mentors lead post-workout activities, present athlete suggestions to the general meetings, assist younger athletes at meets, and support club fundraising activities.
