At the parent meeting I mentioned the possibility of doing a team order with Eastbay. While I was able to make a contact at their corporate office, I was not able to solidify an ordering process. I will continue to work on it but if you are interested in purchasing trainers and competition footwear, check out eastbay.com.
There are a few great trainers on sale for $39.99
Saucony Grid Cohesion NX - Women's
ASICS® Gel-Kanbarra 3 - Women's
Competition footwear is more expensive but typically last longer. When shopping for spikes, it's best to purchase ones with rubber soles. Rubber soled spikes are the only competition shoe that can be used for the indoor and outdoor seasons.
Fleet Feet on Midland and Bloomfield Ave also carry a selection of trainers and competition footwear as does Modells and Sports Authority. If you go to Fleet Feet, mention your purchase is for the high school team and a discount is given.
If you purchase footwear and are not certain, a coach can evaluate the shoe and they can always be returned if not worn.
