Meet Information
Schools may have UNLISTED ENTRIES IN ALL EVENTS AND MAY ENTER MULTIPLE RELAY TEAMS! All athletes in the Discus and Shot Put may have their throws consecutively in accordance with NCHSAA recommended protocols and best practices. Depending on the number of high jump and pole vault entries, the Meet Director has the option of allowing consecutive trials in accordance with Mid-Piedmont and NCHSAA protocols. ALL COACHES SHOULD COME PREPARED TO RUN OR HELP OFFICIATE AN EVENT OR TIME. We will use the Sprint Timer app and use a stopwatch as the backup. In addition to the Head Timer and Backup Timer, the only other officials at the finish line will be the Line Clerk and Picker. I will limit the number of athletes PER HEAT competing in some sprint races (definitely the 100 Meter Dash) to allow for social distancing. Please review the latest NCHSAA protocols and facemasks and please remind your athletes, coaches, and parents/supporters/fans to follow them. Please read the NCHSAA Track and Field Guidelines for the 2021 Outdoor Season. They are on pages 65-69. All of these are still in effect EXCEPT for a loosing of the facemask rule. If you do not have these your Athletic Director should have a copy. I can also email you a copy if you email me requesting one at coachtyre@hotmail.com.
I will email a copy of the Performance List late Monday night, May 24 or early Tuesday morning, May 25 We will do heats at the start line for more efficiency. Heats in the 100 Meter Dash and possibly the 100/110 Meter High Hurdles will be limited to four athletes at a time! We may issue hop/chest numbers in distance races to avoid athletes having to line up in close proximity at the end of the race.
If you have any questions, please email me at coachtyre@hotmail.com or call me at 252 230 7078.
