3.  Girls shuttle hurdles – There will be two markings for the girl’s race. One will be where the runner comes out of the blocks and another where the incoming runner crosses the line. The finish line does not change; however, the starting line will move back.
4.  Please have athletes use their own chalk or tennis balls for markings on the track and on the outside of the runways for the long jump and pole vault.

7.  Field Events – Please make any last-minute changes at the event.
8.  All running events – One entry for individual events. Regarding relays, if something happens during the meet and one of your relay members cannot run, replace that person with the clerk during check in.
9.  A trainer is on call for taping, ice or emergencies. Please provide your own supplies if possible. The trainer will be rotating between track and baseball.
10.  If there is a problem, please see one of the six officials or me. Please do not approach our volunteers.

14.  Results will be posted on the window at the press box.
15.  We will provide shelter for your athletes if they are supervised. However, the athletes need to remain on the last two courts. Restrooms are behind the first court and athletes may use them but please tell them to stay out of the way of the game and that they cannot go anywhere else in the building. I really need your help with this. ATHLETES PLEASE CLEAN UP AFTER YOURSELF. NO SPIKES ALLOWED IN GYM. FIELDHOUSE WILL CLOSE AT 1:00 PM.
