                                       2008 NWC 2A League Track Meet

                                                  Important Guidelines

Entrants:

a.        Schools will be allowed a minimum of one entry in all events. Any athlete, who is ranked in the top 16, after scratches, may be added to the league meet.

b.       Schools will be allowed to enter additional athletes who meet the minimum standards.

c.        If after applying the criteria above and we have not filled two heats for running events we will use the next fastest times to fill the available spaces.  The same process will be used to create full flights for the field events.

d.       Prior to the seed meeting on Monday (5/5/08), coaches must enter all potential sub-district competitors from their team into the sub-district meet using athletic.net.

 

Lane Assignments:

a.        Lane assignments will be based on time.

b.       Athletes from same school will be separated in preliminary heat. If it does not affect seeding.

c.        Place and time in preliminary lane events will determine athletes to the finals.  Example:  If 2 preliminary heats, top 3 places in each heat and 2 next fastest times.

 

Scratches:  All scratches must be called in or emailed to Ted Flint by 10:00 a.m. on Tuesday, May 6th.  A coach may replace the scratched runner if the runner fulfills the criteria.  Any scratches or withdrawals after Tuesday, May 6th must have a doctor’s certificate.  A person scratched after this deadline and without a doctor’s certificate will be withdrawn from all other events in which they have qualified.

 

Clerk of the Course: Entries must check in with the Clerk of the Course prior to an event.  All events will be called three times by the official announcer.

 

Ties:       1.  Ties in the field events will be broken according to the rules in the National Federation Rule Book.

2.  If a tie in the high jump and/or pole vault still exists after applying the National Federation tie breaking rules and the tie involved the last spot to District, the jump off procedure will be completed BEFORE continuing the competition to determine first place.  If a tie occurs for the first place, the tie breaking procedure will be used to break the tie and determine the league champion.

 

Fields Events: Running Events will take precedence over field events.  A participant in a field event will be given ten minutes after the completion of the running events or when dismissed until called to compete.  A high jumper/pole vaulter must jump at the height the bar is set when he/she arrives.

 

Special Instructions for preliminaries and finals:  Nine (9) competitors shall qualify for the finals in the shot put, discus, javelin, long jump and triple jumps.   The order of competition in the finals shall be in reverse order of the best performance in the preliminaries.

 

There may be only two check marks for high jumpers, one permanent (e.g. piece of tape) and one portable (e.g. sock, shoe) which is put down before the jump and removed afterward.  The bar will be raised 2” at a time until only half of the contestants remain.  The bar will then be raised 1” at a time until only one contestant remains.  

 

Pole Vault:  The bar will be raised in 6” intervals until only half the contestants remain.  The bar will then be raised 3” intervals until one contestant remains.  Each contestant, prior to the warm-up, must present to the head event judge a new (updated) WIAA weight certification form. This form must be filled out, dated, and signed by the appropriate parties. A contestant will not be allowed to warm-up or compete without a new (updated) form.  Pole vault poles will be inspected and certified at the pole vault venue by the Head Officials. Athletes will also be weighed-in during the inspection. Poles must be clearly marked with the proper markings. Any competitor who vaults on a pole that is rated below their allowable weight will be disqualified from the event

 

Discus/Shot:  Implements are to be weighed in and taken to the locker room under football scoreboard by 3:00 pm on Wednesday, May 7th and by 5:00 pm on Friday, May 9th.
