No other Ages will be allowed to compete in this meet. Overage Athletes currently in Grade 7 will be allowed to compete for their school but will not be eligible to break records.

Entries
Athletes may only enter events in their own age category. Where an event is not offered they may enter in the next higher category. There is no provision for athletes to compete in events below their age division.

300m
The 300m is for 1997 athletes only. Younger athletes will not be allowed to enter.

Limited entries
Due to time constraints the number of entries to the 100m will be limited again this year. A maximum of 6 athletes per school per Age Division will be allowed.

There is a limit of 2 relay teams per age group per school.

Simultaneous Events
Track events will not be delayed. Check in at your field event and your track event. Then return to your field event and continue competing. Have someone from your team or family monitor the progress of the races and then come back and get you in time for your race. After your race, return immediately to your field event. If you return before the end of a round, you may compete in that round. If the next round has started, missed attempts from the previous round(s) will not be made up. If the event is over, the event is over.

Seeding
There is no seeding in the preliminary rounds of the sprint events. All lane assignments are done by lane draw. We will attempt to ensure all the athletes from one school do not run in the same heat. The volume of entries in each division will ultimately determine our ability to do that. There is seeding in the distance events where more than one heat is necessary. Seed times should be from races run this season.

Relays
This year we have added the 60m shuttle relay for athletes born in 2000 & 2001 only. There will be no Medley relay for grades 3 and 4. There will be no mixed gender relay teams allowed. Clubs will be allowed to run exhibition teams in the preliminary round of the 4 x 100. Only School teams will advance to the finals. There is a limit of 2 relay teams per age group per school.

Correct Technique
For their own safety, it is strongly recommended that athletes know the correct technique before entering technically complex events like the field events or hurdles.

Competitor Numbers
Each Athlete will be issued a competitor number. In track events finishing in lanes the numbers must be worn on the back. For track events not finishing in lanes and field events, numbers must be worn on the front. Relays will be run without competitor numbers. It is assumed that team members will be wearing team shirts.

Technical Information 2010

Track Event Check in
Athletes in track events will be marshaled from the South end of the track. When the event is called send (do not accompany) your athlete to the marshaling area. Do not send them early, as they will be sent away. They should have their number on and be warmed up and ready to run. Sweats can be worn until the Starter gives the command “Sweats off”. After your race return immediately to claim your clothing.

Finals
Advancement to the finals will be by time alone.
The hurdles, the 60m sprints, and the 200m will be run as timed finals.
The top 16 times in each Division will advance to the 100m finals.
