A Few Things to Keep in Mind

1. This is a high school event. Athletes must be in grades 9 to 12. Athletes must be entered by their school and a teacher from the athlete’s school must be present at all times throughout the duration of the event.

2. Maximum spike length allowed on the track surface will be 5 mm pin spikes.

3. Team packages WILL NOT be given out unless entry fee has been received! Cheques are to be made out to “Birchmount Park Collegiate Institute”

4. Athletes are not to be practicing shot put or discus anywhere but the designated throwing areas and only when the meet official is present. Only competing throwers and officials should be inside of the cordoned off throwing area.

5. Coaches, athletes and spectators are to refrain from entering Birchmount Park C.I. property. Washroom facilities will be made available at the stadium.

6. Only officials and marshalled athletes will be allowed on the track or infield.

7. Staking is not permitted at Birchmount Park. Please find another means to weight down your tent/canopy.

8. Coaches are asked to check e-mail on day of meet for officiating duties, last minute reminders, cancellation notice due to hazardous weather conditions, etc.
