Coach: William BullardEMail: charlotteheattc@hotmail.comWebsite: www.charlotteheattc.comTeamProfile: The Charlotte Heat is a non-profit; youth track club that strives to motivate youths ages 6-18 of Charlotte,NC and surrounding areas, to achieve leadership, self-discipline, sportsmanship, integrity, and a sense of community in a nonviolent, drug free atmosphere.Our program offers athletes a dynamic balance through team/individual elements of track and field as a medium to strengthen work ethics and foster self-esteem. Charlotte Heat doesn't host tryouts to join. Track is not about just running and athletic conditioning; moreover, it is a training ground for our next generation of productive citizens.Charlotte Heat allows children to grasp the importance of giving back to the community. Through these community outreach projects, the children learn how to be an asset to the community by giving back to the less fortunate and are more appreciative to what they have received.2005 was our club's first track season and it was very successful one. Some of the highlights from the season are: 14 Academic All-Americans with G.P.A.'s of 3.0 & above, Johnson Riley Invite Team Champions, BAYTAF Classic Divison II Runner-Up Team, Broke 1 National Record, Broke 7 meet Records, 34 State Champions, 31 Regional Champions, 29 Junior Olympic Qualifers, 2 National Champions, 2 National Runner-Ups, and 14 Indoor/Outdoor All-Americans.SubmittedBy: William Bullard/Head Coach
