Wetzel/Tyler Track League

2010 Format

Please note: The Wetzel/Tyler Track League will run as one meet each time we compete this season and not as three separate dual meets as in the past. Athletes will now be heated from slow to fast as they would normally be in a final heat of an invitational. There will be no trials, only finals in every event. This will simplify things for our athletes, timers, starters, and scorekeepers. Coaches will be responsible for entering their athletes using Hytek and submitting those entries the day before each meet. You will need to download the event files which will be posted on runwv.com, enter your athletes in their events, and email that file to me at:

jsemple@access.k12.wv.us

Other instructions are as follows:

• Coaches may enter up to three athletes per event in races run entirely in lanes. These include: 100, 200, 400, 100HH, 300IH. You may enter more than three athletes (JV runners) in races run in alleys: 800, 1600, and 3200. Only the top 3 will score. JV runners will be added to the list at the bullpen for all running events. If you have enough runners to enter an entire “B” team please let me know and I will see if we have room to accommodate everyone.
• Relays will follow the same format as above. You may enter more than one 4X8 team since we start in alleys. Please make sure we can distinguish between your “A” team and your “B” team.
• Coaches may also enter more than 3 athletes in field events but please be reasonable. We may not have enough time to accommodate 20 extra throwers. Only your top 3 will score. Enter only your top three on your entry please. Others will be added at the event.
• Please confirm that we have received your entries!
• Athletes in the shot, discus, and long jump will be given 3 attempts. There will be no further attempts.
• Field events will be on a rolling schedule. When the first session is finished the second session will begin promptly. The order for field events in the First Session is as follows:
• Girls Shot
• Boys Discus
• Girls High Jump
• Boys Long Jump
• All Pole Vault Contestants Report With Weight Verification Forms
• You may scratch and replace at the field events only. You must make any scratches prior to the start of the meet if you so choose. This must be done to allow time to print the heat sheets.
• All implements are subject to inspection. ¼” pyramid spikes only. Blocks will be provided, however you may use your own blocks as long as they have the appropriate spikes. Bring your own batons.
• We will begin the field events at 4:30. Running events will begin at 4:45. All scratches are due in the press box by 4:15.

Coaches please remind your athletes of the following:

• No food, gum, or glass containers are permitted on the track.
• Spikes are not permitted in the stands.
• No boom boxes or loud music is permitted in the stadium.
• No electronic devices are permitted inside the track venue.
• ¼” pyramid spikes only.
• Tape or tennis balls may be used for marking exchange zones but there will be no tennis balls used to mark on the high jump area. Tape only in the high jump area.
• No climbing or jumping the fence.
• Athletes must remain quiet and out of the way while in the infield to enable our officials to perform their duties.

Failure to comply with these rules may lead to disqualification from the meet and possible removal from the premises.
