All busses will be directed for unloading and parking.
Once at the Track & Field facility, spectator entrance is on the Northeast side of Newman Stadium. Please enter and exit through that gate. As per FHSAA Policy, there will be a charge of $7.00 for Gate Admission for all spectators. Only FHSAA State Series Passes are accepted. Athletes and Coaches will NOT be charged, but athletes must have their uniform on. All Spectators, Coaches, and Non-Participating Athletes are not allowed inside the fenced in track and field area. All events are viewable from any point alongside the fence. Most of the gates around the track will be locked down. Please do not jump any fences.
Team Tents and Warm-up Areas:
Team Tents may be placed on the Kuhn Practice Field on the Eastside of Newman Stadium. No Tents are allowed in the Stands. Warm-ups may take place around the Kuhn Practice Field, Dickey Field and the E.C. Smith Tennis Complex, and other areas surrounding the stadium. NO participant or spectator may go through Campus, especially during the school day. Security Personnel are very present on our campus. Your athlete and/or team risks disqualification for accessing unauthorized areas.
Trainers:
Athletic trainers will be provided on site. Taping is available, but athletes must provide their own pre-wrap and tape. The trainers will not provide massages.
