No tape of any type will
be permitted on any surface. Marking materials will be supplied to all
athletes.
All National Federation rules will
be strictly enforced. A contestant shall not compete in more than four
events, including relays. The State of SC follows the old uniform
rule. One piece bodysuits are not permitted without over shorts.
Girls may wear closed leg briefs or boy cut shorts, no biker shorts etc...
are permitted. No jewelry, hats or head bands will be allowed.
Athletes must keep a shirt on at all times, while in the stands or on the
track.
Boys’ pole vault will be in two
flights. Flight #1 on Friday night will be for everyone who does not want to
open at 13’ or better. Anyone who makes 13’ or higher on Friday may enter the
vault on Saturday but he enters with no mark. Marks on Friday night will not
be considered for places. The vault on Friday will open at 11’6” and go up by
6” intervals only, even with one vaulter left, and will go until all vaulters
have fouled out or stopped. Flight #2 will be held at 3pm on Saturday and
opening height will be 13’0.
In the 400 m, 400 IH, 4 X 100 m relay or 4 X 400 m
relay, declarations will be completed before seeding. Coaches will
need to declare their athletes at the meet. Undeclared athletes or
relays will be scratched. Sections will then be seeded one hour before
the start of the race. In the 400m and the 400mIH each school will be
allowed only one entry. These entries must be declared on Saturday. One for
one substitutions will still be allowed. Any school who has two runners who
both surpass a verifiable entry guideline may request to have both athletes
run. This guideline is: 400m (B-49.90, G-59.90) and 400mIH (B-59.90,
G-69.90).
In the long jump, shot put and
discus each athlete will have his/her first legal mark measured. After the
first measured mark, no trial will be marked unless it reaches the following:
long jump (B-20’0, G-15’0), shot put (B-40’0, G-30’0) and discus
(B-120’0,G-90’0).
In the shot put, discus, long
jump, and triple jump – 10 athletes will qualify to the finals. In the 100m,
200m, and the high hurdles – we will continue to have a two heat final.
There will be a JV mile m run on Friday evening. Entries are
unlimited. The girls run at 5:45 and the boys run at 6:00.
Any athlete that runs in the JV mile may not run any other races. This
is exclusively for athletes who are otherwise not running in the meet.
The JV runners will not be entered prior to the meet. They will report
to the clerk when called. Runners will be shown their image and time on
the FinishLynx computer.
We will be using FinishLynx
timing, therefore all singlets must be tucked in so the hip number is clearly
visible. All runners must wear the hip number on their left hip.
Unofficial running times will be displayed on the stadium scoreboard.
One eighth inch (1/8") spikes
are recommended. The wearing of spikes longer than 1/4" will
result in disqualification from that event. Starting blocks will be
provided. Individual throwing implements may be weighed in and used if
they pass inspection. Personal, MP3 players only will be
allowed in the stadium.
Athletes must enter and exit the
track through the clerk area. The clerk area is located behind the 100
m start line. Athletes are not to use the steps at the bottom of the
stands to enter the track.
Team scoring will be through 8
places.
Each school may enter only 2
athletes per event. However, please do not enter anyone in the high jump or
pole vault who doesn't have a reasonable chance of clearing opening height.
High Jump Girls: 4'
10" Boys: 6' 0"
Pole Vault Girls: 8'
0" Boys: 11' 6"
