MEETS

Athletes may participate in any four events at a regular season meet. This is a new rule change. There is now no distinction between field events and running events. The event limit has also been applied to Gremlins, who previously were limited to three events.

The 4x400 relay is a free event and does not count towards an athlete's number of events. This means athletes can participate in any 4 events + the 4x400 relay.

Track meets start in March.  See Meet Schedule. Only athletes that set qualifying marks go to the Varsity Finals.

Track meets run from 8AM until they are finished, typically between 1PM and 3PM.  You do NOT need to stay for the duration of the meet. You are also welcome to show up later if that’s when your races begin. If this is the case, it’s extremely important you let your coach know ahead of time and let the team parent know you’ve arrived/you’re leaving at the meet so they know your child is not missing.

Athletes will select the events they wish to compete in before each track meet.  See Order of Events.  There are not set times for events and fluctuate depending on the size of the clubs participating.
