your Team Manager or Team Manager Lite Program and enter your athletes’ times

use the names of your athletes as they appear on your WVSSAC roster. (Be sure
that all of your athletes are on your eligibility list and synced to your

to runwv@runwv.com by 10:00am. You can still make scratches/replacements at
the meet until 1:00pm.
Admission: Adults - $7 & Students - $5
Awards: Medals to all event winners, including
relays. Ribbons to places 2-6. Team
plaque to the Regional Champion.
Entry Fee: There is no entry fee for a regional meet.
However, the only awards that are supplied by the WVSSAC are the two
championship plaques. DCHS ordered
medals and ribbons for this meet. We are
asking that each school please send $25 per team ($25 for boys & $25 for
girls, total of $50 for both) to cover the cost of these awards.) Over the
years a lot of coaches have bemoaned the lack of awards at regional meets, so
we are trying to do something about it.
Other notes:
1) Pole Vault verification must be turned in
at the event.
2) Shot puts and discuses must be weighed and
verified before the event.
3) Spikes can only be ¼ inch or shorter.
Runners in spikes must stay off of the marked area of the football field.
4) Team tents should be put up in the
visitor’s bleachers or in the top half of the home side bleachers from the
press box toward the flagpole end of the stadium.
5) We will have a meal for the coaches and
workers, during the break, under the home side bleachers.
6) In the sprints and hurdles 8 Athletes will
qualify for the finals using a combination of place and time.
7) In the throws and long jump, the top 8,
plus any ties for 8th, will qualify for the finals.
8) Coaches will be given a packet at the
timing building when they arrive. This packet will include meet information,
including a performance list.
9) Coaches are asked to pick up awards and a
meet printout at the timing building at the conclusion of the meet.
Qualifying for the State Meet:
In all running events, the throws, and the
long jump, the top 3 finishers from our region will automatically qualify for
the state meet. Also qualifying will be
the 4 athletes from all Regions combined that had the best performances
in each event that did not automatically qualify in those events.
In
the high jump and pole vault the top 4 finishers will automatically qualify
along with anyone that meets a pre-determined standard that will be announced
by the state games committee.
There
is a 3rd way that a relay team or individual might qualify. If there are
not 16 qualifiers in a particular event, the WVSSAC will go through the
regional results to fill up the 16 slots. This happens when a regional or more
than one regional has few or no entrants in a given event. This kind of thing sometimes happens in Class
“A”, especially.
