TRACK EVENT NOTES:
When Teams Arrive:
We will be using the competition football field for our teams to set up their tents. Please set these up near the fence/bleachers closest to the track. The football field is off limits, as it is wet and muddy. All warm-ups and cool-downs should be done on the track. Teams should use the bathroom facilities located in the concessions building (no concessions will be available). Buses can unload teams in the parking lot by the fields.
Spectators:
All spectatorsfor track events are asked to use the bleachers, or stand along the fence. Spectators will be able to view the throwing and jumping events at each site.
Track Events:
We will be using a check in table for all track events 800m and up. For all other track events, athletes should report to the line clerk to get their heat and lane assignments. We will be making 1st, 2nd and 3rd/final calls.
We will be using flights for Long Jump, Triple Jump, Shot Put, Discus and Javelin. Girls and Boys High Jump will be starting at the same time. We will only be contesting the Girls Pole Vault. Field event athletes should check in at the site.
We will be using 6 lanes for laned events and a waterfall start for non-laned (800m and up).
There will be a Line Clerkwho will double check hip numbers, lane assignments and heats. They will keep the heats organized and running smoothly.
If numbers allow, we will most likely be combining the 4 x 8, Racewalk and the 3200m.
ELECTRONIC TIMING WILL BE USED AT THIS MEET. Please have your team stay clear of the finish line. Instruct your athletes not to ask the timers for their times. At the conclusion of each race, your athletes should return to the finish line in their lane until the timers excuse them.
Please pick up your team area at the conclusion of the meet.
