The Oakland Cubs is a youth running team. We are part of USATF and AAU and participate in cross country in the fall and track and field in the spring. Our team consists of recreational and competitive runners of various ages.

The youth runners learn running technique, teamwork, sportsmanship, resiliency, among other life skills, all while having fun. All practices and competitions are age appropriate and based on years running.

Coach Andrea Johnson and Kym Smith are incredibly knowledgeable, encouraging, and invested in their athletes. Oakland Cubs is truly a special team.

All youth are welcomed to join. No child wanting to participate will be turned away. This incredible team has continued to grow and we've outgrown our canopy and need to get a larger one. The canopy is our young athletes home away from home on the track, a place to rest and connect with teammates. Throughout the seasons Oakland Cubs run in the rain and in the very hot sun. The canopy offers our athletes a respite from the elements.
