MDS Invitational 2024

Macon, GA

Meet Information

Coaches,

We are looking forward to our MDS Invitational Feb. 21st. Included are some important materials for you to look over before the meet. Certain details may be subject to change. I also want to remind you of a few items:

Entry Fee: $200 for both MS and HS, $150 for just MS or HS team

Entries: All meet entries will be done online. They are due MONDAY 2/19 at MIDNIGHT. Please do not wait until the last minute because you have to register your team on the site and that takes a couple days. You can begin doing entries now.

Substitutions: You can make free substitutions even during the meet. However, I will not change the names after you send in your entry. Just have an athlete run in the place of the entered athlete. NO ADDITIONS to your entries.

How you can help: We will need your help in running the field events. Details provided at a later

Limits to entries: You are limited to 5 individuals and 3 relays per event. However, entries in the 1600, 3200, and 800 are unlimited. We will only score your top 3.

Uniforms: It will be cold, so most anything will fly. Make sure the hip number is showing on the left hip

Facilities: Feel Free to set up tents on the side of the stadium. You can use our pavilion. We will not be warming up on the field due to wet conditions.

Heats/Trials:

Heats will be run as a final against the clock. No prelims. 3 trials in the long and triple, shot and discus.

Scoring:

We will score the top eight places 10-8-6-5-4-3-2-1

Results:

Results for the top eight places will be announced and complete results will be posted beneath the press box or online.

Team results will be announced and posted at the end of the day.
