Note From Meet Director: Coaches,
1. Each team will be allowed to enter six athletes. Your top four athletes will be entered as normal, but the last two will be JV kids. We want them to be 7th or 8th graders. Do not give them a time. We will run them last. The hope is to give the younger kids a chance to run a race other than the 800 or 1600. This will also hopefully cut down on the number of kids entered into those two events. These JV kids will not count to the scoring.
We are also going to allow you one additional thrower/jumper in each field event of the meet. This will give you an additional mark in the throws/jumps for district purposes. With the addition of the extra participant, we will only allow three jumps and throws instead of four. No finals.
2. Distance events have an unlimited number of entries. We will run 2 heats with the top four athletes from each school being placed in the first heat. The second heat will be comprised of all remaining athletes. We will attempt to combine the 1600 into 1 heat if possible. Only the top four athletes need to be entered into runnercard. Please provide a time for each of your top four athletes for seeding purposes. Each athlete will also need to have a name tag with first/last name and school for the seeded heat. We will only get times for the top 10 runners in the non seeded heat. Coaches will be required to get their athletes times.
3. The starting heights for the High Jump will be: Girls- 4'00" raising the bar 2 inches until 4'10" and one inch thereafter. Boys- 5'00" raising the bar 2 inches until 5'10" and one inch thereafter.
4. Each athlete will be given 3 attempts in each field event (excluding high jump). No finals
