The event file for this meet is located on the WVSSAC website. To download the meet event file open “sports and schedules” and under “individual sports” click on “track”. Download Regional event file AA  Region 1.

 

The names you send with your entries must match the name on your eligibility sheet.  Athlete grade levels should be listed with class abbreviations ( FR, SO, JR, SR).

Rosters from the WVSSAC for your team will be printed on Wednesday, May 6th. Check and make any needed updates or corrections on this site as any athlete not on this roster will not be permitted to participate in the Regional Meet on the day of the meet. Take the time to double check the roster on the WVSSAC website. 

 

 

If you know that you have changes you would like to make after you send the entries, please email them to me by 11:00 AM, Wednesday May 13th.  You will still be able to make changes before the meet but it will save the computer operators a lot of time on the day of the meet if we get some of the changes early.

 

If a question arises during the scratch meeting regarding an entry time for an athlete or relay, please have appropriate documentation to prove your entry time.
