Entry Deadline: Coaches need to have their entries on Athletic.net sometime on Tuesday, March 26, 2024.  Do not make changes on Athletic.net after this time.  If you haven’t had a meet yet, please use reasonable estimates when entering your athletes.  (Not past PR’s, but what is likely now.)  

Entries:  You may enter unlimited individuals in each individual event and 2 relay teams in each relay event.  Only one relay team from each team can score.

Scratches:  Please email your scratches and replacements by 10:00am on Thursday, March 28 to runwv@runwv.com.  Last minute scratches and replacements will also be accepted until 12:30pm at the meet.  If possible, please make every effort to get this information to us on by 10:00am on Thursday.

Miscellaneous: Starting blocks will be provided. We will have 8 sets of blocks at each starting line. We hope that you will use our starting blocks, but if you bring your own, you will be responsible for carrying them from event to event. Also, please tell your athletes to NOT take our starting blocks from one start line to another.  There are 8 at each start line. The longest spikes allowed on our track are ¼ inch.  Participants in the throws and long jump will get 4 attempts.  There will be no finals in these events!
