Region 4-2A Track Coaches,
I hope everyone is doing well and ready for the Region 4-2A Track Meet hosted by Pine Crest & Calvary at Calvary Christian on Thursday, April 28th. There will be an informal coaches meeting starting at 9:30 AM on the infield at the finish line. You are NOT required to be at the meeting, especially if you are traveling from a far distance and don't have athletes competing until later in the day.
Field events and the 4x800m Relay will start at 10:00 AM. Prelims will follow at 2:00 PM and Finals will begin at 6:30 PM.
Please see the attached heat sheets and meet schedule for the full schedule of events. We created this schedule to ensure athletes have adequate recovery time and can plan their warm-ups accordingly. The schedule that is attached to this email and on the FHSAA website (updated on 4-18-16) is the final schedule. As long as the weather cooperates, we will stick to the schedule and not start anything early. If we fall behind, we will move to a rolling schedule until we catch up. In the event of severe weather, we would adjust the schedule to complete the meet on Thursday.
Here is some other important information for the meet. Please take your time and read the entire email.
PLEASE FEEL FREE TO FORWARD THIS EMAIL TO YOUR ATHLETIC DIRECTOR, ASSISTANT COACHES, ATHLETES AND THEIR PARENTS.
1. Rules/Instructions
Athletes must have met the 4 meet participation rule to be entered into the regional meet and also be entered on your State Series Eligibility List that was submitted to C2C Schools.
If an athlete received a DNS (did not start/show) at the District Meet, they are disqualified from the Regional & State Meet. This includes relays.
Athletes must participate in all individual events where they have qualified. If they miss an individual event, they will be disqualified from all remaining events in regionals and state.
If they qualified in an open event for the Regional Meet, they must take a legal start or an attempt in the field event to remain eligible. That event would still count towards their 4 event maximum per meet.
Athletes will also only be allowed to compete in 4 events. You may not substitute an athlete that is entered into 4 open events out of an open event to add them into a relay.
The relay slip document is attached to this email. Please print out enough copies for your teams. Per FHSAA rules, changes between prelims and finals are limited to the competitors listed on the relay card in the relay event for the duration of the meet once the relay card has been submitted to the clerk of course (4.14.2.3.1 (c) (3)). You will not need to submit a new card for 4x1 finals. The clerk will identify which athletes run in the prelims and the finals.
The 4x800m and 4x400m Relay will be run in two heats with the faster heat going 2nd. District Champions are automatically in the fast heat.
The 800m, 1600m and 3200m will be run in one heat.
In the long jump, triple jump, discus and shot put, after the prelims, the top 9 athletes will be given 3 more attempts, with their prelim attempts carrying over to the finals. The finals will take place immediately after the prelims are finished. If there is a tie for 9th place in the prelims, both athletes would advance to the finals. Ties are only broken at the conclusion of the event.
We will be running prelim races in all NON-final races. That means, 100/110m Hurdles, 100m, 400m, 4x100m Relay, 300m Hurdles and 200m. The top 3 from each heat and the next 2 best times will advance to the finals. If there is a tie for 8th place in the prelims, a run off would take place at the conclusion of the prelims to determine the 8th spot for the finals.
In the pole vault and high jump, if there is a tie for 4th place, a jump off will take place at the conclusion of the event.
If you check out of a field event to go to another event, you MUST take an attempt before being allowed to check out again. Athletes will be given a 12 minute time limit that begins when the athlete checks out with the official.
When you check out of an event, please wait until the final call before going to the other event.
Jewelry is prohibited. No rings, earrings, bracelets, necklaces or anklets. You are only allowed to wear a non-GPS enabled watch. Sunglasses are also allowed.
Hair ribbons and head bands must be of one solid color, no wider than 2" and made of soft material.
The warm-up area is located outside of the track area. There is ample space. Hurdles will be provided.
Coaches boxes will be established near each field event for coaches. Athletes not competing must remain outside of the competition area. Once the field events are concluded, coaches will have to leave the infield.
Opening heights will be as follows (subject to change in the event of inclement weather):
Girls PV: 7'0"
Boys PV: 7'6"
Girls HJ: 4'4"

Results will be posed on the scoreboard during the races and on the shed just north of the track by the finishline.
