Declaration Method

Running Events

Coaches enter anyone into any event.  But on race day the competing athlete declares his/her intention to compete at a designated table.  This declaration process is done in conjunction with events that are happening on the track.  The reason for this is it is easier for an athlete to relate to events on the track.  Also, it allows for a rolling time schedule to occur.  Once we find out who is running on the day of the meet, we seed up the heats.  This method limits the number of empty lanes.  The seeding process allows athletes to compete against athletes with like ability.

Field Events

Field events are seeded prior to start of the event.  Only competing athletes need to report to the area of competition.  All non competing athletes will be scratched when we do the results.

- Example of a declaration schedule, this can be customized to meet your specific event needs -

    All field events report to competition area. No scratches or declarations need to be made.

All running event participants will need to check into the declaration tent by the appropriate times listed to declare your intention to compete or you will be scratched. If you declare and don't compete you will be scratched from the meet.
