1.  Athletes should check in to the event 15 minutes prior to the start of the event.

2.  Long Jump will be an open pit/area for 60 Minutes. Athletes will have that window to complete their 3 jumps.  *The long jump is based on a 60 minute window, however, if all athletes have completed their jumps before the 60 minutes allotted, the time for the girls long jump will be moved up.  Athletes and coaches are responsible for listening to the PA system for announcements about the start of a field event.

3.  The high jump will run like a regular meet. Athletes need to report and check into the high jump on time or they will be scratched. Girls will start at 4'0" and the boys will start at 4'2".

4.  Triple jump will start after the girls long jump. There will be a 15 minute run through allowed before competition starts. Boy and girl triple jumpers will have an open pit for 60 minutes. We offer a 24 and 32 triple jump board.
