Dear Athletic Directors and Track Coaches:

 

Jefferson High School would like to invite your track teams to participate in the Jim Taylor Relays and/or the Walker/Wilcox Invitational.  The Jim Taylor Relays will be held on March 25, 2017 and includes relay and field events only.  The Walker/Wilcox Invitational will be on April 8, 2017, and will follow the traditional West Virginia format for a two-session meet.  Both meets are scheduled for a 10:00 a.m. start time.

 

The Jim Taylor Relays has hosted teams from Virginia, Maryland, and West Virginia over the past several years and hopes to draw its largest field ever this year.  All schools will be able to enter at least one relay team (depending on the number of teams that register) in all running and field

events.  Field events are scored by tallying the heights or distances of three athletes from the same school.

 

Toward the middle of the season, many area teams will want to use the Walker/Wilcox Invitational as a chance to gain experience with the two session format. The JHS track is an eight-lane, all-weather rubber surface, and has a FinishLynx Fully Automatic Timing system for results.

 

 

Entries will be limited to 16 teams per meet.  Fees for each meet will be $50 per team or $90 for schools entering both boys and girls teams.  Please register at your earliest convenience as priority will be given to the first 16 teams to sign up.  Because these will be WVSSAC sanctioned meets, confirmation of your attendance is requested by February 15, 2017.

 

Sincerely,

 

Craig Hunter, JHS Boys Track Coach
