What is the schedule for Meets?
See our Calendar page or visit Arbiter Live
Who attends each meet?
The entire team is invited to compete in every meet, both home and away.
How many events can each athlete compete in at a meet?
All athletes can compete in up to TWO running events, and ONE field event.
(Running events include individual events and team relay events.)
How do I know which events to compete in at a meet?
The coaches will help you find events that you will enjoy and succeed in!
If you are not told to be in a specific event, you have the option of picking any events you would like to try! Just show up at the starting line when the event is announced!
A Brief note on "100m" and other short races!
There is a STRONG tendency for folks to ONLY sign up for 100m and other short races...leaving us with very few folks running the 800m and Mile events! We want to push you to do the long distance.
We have a super sneaky/tricky way to get folks to sign up. For each meet, there are ZERO slots available for racing 100m.
As folks sign up for longer distance, spaces open up!
Every miler adds 6 slots for the 100m
Every 800m adds 4 slots for the 100m
Every 400m adds 2 slots for the 100m
