FIELD ASSIGNMENTS: In order to run a successful track meet, it is essential to have some help from the visiting coaches. Our objective is to run a good meet and for it to be an efficient meet. If you are uncomfortable running a particular event please let me know and I will switch you with someone.
SCHEDULE OF EVENTS: I have enclosed a schedule of events. It is necessary to make sure that your track athletes know where to go and were they are running.
SCRATCH MEETING: We will have a scratch meeting at 3:15. I will hand out field assignments and an order of events. If you need to make a change or you need to add an athlete, they can add on site at the event in the 800, 1600, and field events. You can only sub runners in all other events, we will not add.
RUNNING EVENTS: Make sure your athletes stay on the track at the end of the race so that we can check their name and get their time.
TIMERS: I will need coaches from each school to help with timing.
SCORING: We will score only two from each school. For example, if you finish 1st, 2nd , 3rd in the 800, we will score the 1st and 2nd place. The 3rd place finisher from your school will not get points.
Scoring in a 6 team meet is 10-8-6-4-2-1 for individual events and 10-8-6-4-2 for relays.
