Meet Information
Meet Information Sheet
Welcome to the 2011 City-County Meet hosted by Southern Alamance! We are excited to have you here and want to make this the best meet possible. Here are a few things you should know in order for the meet to run smoothly.
Entry Lists
Entries will need to be emailed in by 6:00pm on Friday, March 25th. The entries will need to be submitted by a spreadsheet with athletes first and last names, along with their grade classification. Each school can enter 3 athletes per individual event and one team per relay event.
Scratches
We will have a scratch meeting at 3:00 PM. All scratches must be made at the meeting or prior to meet day competition. Any athlete that misses an event that they are entered in that has not been scratched will be disqualified from the remainder of the meet.
Clerking
All running events will check in at the clerking area. Athletes should check in on the 1st or 2nd call. Once checked in, heats will be set up and the athletes will be led out to the track from the clerking area. No one should be on the infield unless they are in the warm-up area.
Scoring Procedures
We will be taking 6 to the finals in the sprints and scoring 6 places (10-8-6-4-2-1). We will have prelims for the sprint races. In the field events, each athlete will get three attempts and there will be no finals. There will be 2 flights for each field event. The field events will be seeded in reverse order with the worst going first and the best going last.
