NEW THIS

YEAR:              Due to the overwhelming requests of trying to accommodate athletes, coaches and parents by allowing them

to change events the day before or the day of the event, has made this to difficult and time consuming.  Therefore,

in order to eliminate this we will be charging $5.00 fee (cash) per change.  WE ARE ENCOURAGING coaches

and parents look at the schedule of our meet and the national meet carefully before entering kids.  We

decided on this policy as opposed to the other policy of NO CHANGES.

 

All races will be seeded by time entered.  All races will be seeded slowest to fastest.

 If athletes no show for there races, their will be NO re-seeding at the start line. (Meet Committee)

 

Athletes not checked into their field events by the time the first official attempt of the event will scratched from the event. 

Please check into field events on time. (Meet Committee in accordance to JO Games Rule)

 

The Pat Kavadas Central California Summer Sports Festival Region 13A Track and Field Championships will be part
