The entry deadline is Wednesday, January 13 at 11:59pm.
Entering Marks
Entering marks should be projections of your athletes' performances for this point of the season, not personal bests. This will ensure that each athlete will be placed into a heat/flight that he or she can handle at this time of the year. You can enter an athlete with NT (no time); however, he/she will be placed in the slowest heat or weakest flight.
Entry Limit
Athletes are limited to three individual events. Teams are limited to one relay per relay event. "B" teams, "C" teams, etc can pay an additional entry fee of $5 per relay.
Entry fees
Entry fees are $10 per individual (who is entered in one or more individual events) and $10 per relay (an athlete who is in a relay only will not be charged an individual entry fee, only the relay is charged). Maximum team amounts will be charged as follows: 13-20 athletes is $125; 21-30 athletes is $150; and over 30 athletes is $175. Boys teams and girls teams are separate. Teams are limited to one relay per relay event. Teams charged a maximum "team amount" will receive 3 relay entries at no additional charge. Additional relay teams (over three) can be entered and will be charged an additional entry fee of $5 per relay - this is in addition to the maximum "team" entry fee. Entry fees are based on the number of athletes and relays entered, not the number who actually compete. You can make scratches up to 5:00pm on the day prior to the meet (see below) and not be charged for those scratched entries. Make checks payable to The University of Findlay Track & Field. You can send payment prior to meet day or pay at the meet site on the day of the meet.
Scratches
You may report any scratches via e-mail (klingshirn@findlay.edu) on the day prior to the meet by 5:00pm. We will also take final scratches on meet day. We urge you to make scratches on the day prior if possible to allow us to operate the meet more efficiently. Also, you will not be charged for athletes and relays that you scratch prior to 5:00pm the day before the meet.
Facility Layout
The University of Findlay's Malcolm Athletic Center underwent a $500,000 renovation in the fall of 2015 which includes new surfaces for the track, throws areas, and the long/triple jump and pole vault runways; and new landing pits for the pole vault and high jump. The track is 200m with six lanes on the oval and eight on the straightaway. There are two LJ pits, each with a 190' runway. The PV runway is 160' in length. There is FinishLynx timing interfaced with a scoreboard and Hy-Tek Meet Management software. Portable bleachers accommodate seating for approximately 650. There is a spike-resistant carpet covering the wood courts - we ask that teams make their camp there.
Spikes
l/4" pyramid spikes or less can be worn for all running events, the long jump, and the pole vault. Please note that most Nike and Adidas spikes are supplied with "Christmas Tree" spikes- those are NOT permitted on our track. Please replace them with pyramid spikes which may be purchased at the track.

Concession Stand
The concession stand will be open throughout the competition.
Directions
The University of Findlay is located just off lnterstate-75 at exit #159 in Findlay, Ohio. Off the exit ramp, follow 224 East approximately 1.2 miles. Tum right onto Main Street. The Koehler Complex is on the right in two blocks, just past the University Bookstore. Limited parking is available in the lots in front and behind the building; signs will be posted for additional parking areas. Buses may drop off athletes in the front drive and then park in designated areas. Do not park in the lot behind the church located to the south of the Koehler Complex - vehicles parking in that lot are subject to towing - please pass this information on to any parents or spectators attending the meet.
Inclement Weather
If your team is unable to make the meet due to inclement weather, PLEASE CALL 419-434-4545 and leave a message!!! This will enable us to delete your team from the meet and avoid empty lanes and small flights. Meet cancellation would only occur in the event of a Level 3 Snow Emergency in Hancock County. Should this occur, we will place a recorded message at 419-434-4545.
Meet Day Check-In
Coaches must check-in immediately upon arrival in the main lobby of the building. Coaches will receive an entry list detailing each athlete and relay entry as is currently entered into our computer system. It is the coach's responsibility to double-check this entry list and report any mistakes! Instructions will be given for making corrections, scratches and/or substitutions.
Time Schedule
A tentative time schedule is posted on our website. A revised time schedule, based on entries, will be posted on our website the day prior to the meet and will be made available on meet day. We will still roll ahead of this final time schedule if possible.
Flight and Heat Sheets
Flight and heat sheets will be posted on the bulletin boards outside the track area in the hallway past the restrooms and training room. Field event flights will be posted approximately 60 minutes prior to the start of the field events. Heat sheets for running events will be posted approximately 30 minutes prior to the start of the first running event. Flights and heats may be condensed during the course of the meet - please inform your athletes!
Warm-Up
Warm-up is permitted on the track as long as it does not interfere with any events in progress. Athlete warm up is not permitted in the finish line area once running events start. Crossing the finish line may block the view of the camera; therefore athletes and coaches are not permitted in the vicinity of the finish line area while races are in progress. Please note that the 200m and the first lap of the 400m are run entirely in lanes. Athletes should use lanes 4, 5, & 6 during multiple lap races.
Athlete Check-In
Athletes competing in field events should check-in with the meet official at the event site at least 20 minutes prior to the start of the event. All athletes competing in running events must check-in at the hip number table near the 60-meter start line approximately 20 minutes prior to the projected start of their event. We follow a rolling time schedule; therefore the time schedule contains tentative start times. First call, second
call, etc. announcements will not be made - it is the athlete's responsibility to check-in on time. The clerks will then "stage" competitors into the correct heat approximately 5 minutes prior to the start of each race this will take place near the 60m starting line. The clerk will then direct each heat to the starting line. It is imperative that athletes remain in the vicinity of the staging area so that they do not miss their race.
Implement Weight-In
Weigh-ins will open approximately 60 minutes prior to the first throwing event. Shot puts must be for indoor use only.
Long & Triple Jump and Shot Put & Weight Throw Flights
If there are four or more flights, the top 16-18 seeds will be placed in the first two flights and receive three attempts; the top 8 from these two flights will advance to a final immediately after. The remaining competitors will receive 3 attempts; any competitor achieving a mark that would have made the final will receive 3 additional attempts.
Pole Vault
If there are a large number of entrants, the PV will be split in 2 sections - the first section will consist of the top seeded vaulters; the remaining vaulters will compete in the second section immediately after.
Starting Heights
Girls HJ: 4'2"; increments of 2" Boys HJ: 5'4"; increments of2"
Boys PV: 9'0"; increments of 6" Girls PV: 7'0"; increments of 6"
Results
Results will be posted on the bulletin boards in the outside hallway as soon as possible after the conclusion of each event. Complete results will also be posted on the Finishtiming and Ohio Milesplit websites.
