Mission Statement

The Ohiocrosscountry.org was established in 2004 to promote and champion Middle School athletics by creating and providing state level events for them to compete in. These events aim to provide valuable transferable experiences for student-athletes. All Ohiocrosscountry.org events must promote “Ship Building” skills, SportsmanSHIP, LeaderSHIP and FriendSHIP. All Ohiocrosscountry.org events must be inclusive and encourage participation. Teams and athletes should never be forced to qualify for an Ohiocrosscountry.org event.
