Age Divisions<\/strong>: \u00a0Youth age divisions are determined by the year of birth. For example, even though a youth may be 13 on the day of the meet, with a DOB 10\/1\/2011, he\/she would run with the 14 year olds. Open and Masters age divisions are determined by age on the day of the meet.<\/p>\n

Helpful tips at the Meet:\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

1. \u00a0Enter on time<\/strong>: \u00a0Late registrations, additions, and changes only slow the meet down AND increases the likelihood of errors. \u00a0All the paperwork is printed well before the day of the meet. So when entries are received late, the changes are penciled in on the heat sheets, and are easy to miss.<\/p>\n

2. \u00a0Scratches<\/strong>: \u00a0If you know an athlete will not be attending, let the official at their event(s) know. \u00a0They spend time waiting, looking, and sending people to find these non attending athletes.<\/p>\n

3. \u00a0Accurate entries: \u00a0Make sure your athlete’s Date of birth and Gender\u00a0is accurate! \u00a0When athletes register, ES Sports can only \u00a0take the data entered. \u00a0These errors in athlete entry may change an athlete’s division, thus affecting other athlete’s results….most notably in the 100m Dash Prelims and Finals.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

4. \u00a0Compatible Events<\/strong>: \u00a0When entering an athlete, choose the events that the athlete can realistically compete in. Just because you are allowed 3 or 4 events, you do not need to enter that many. \u00a0This is along the lines of what my Mother used to say: “You can have as much as you want, just eat what you take!” \u00a0So, enter as many events up to your limit, but attend the events you enter. \u00a0This reduces the scratches issue listed in #2.<\/p>\n

If there are two events going simultaneously, ie. Pole Vault \u00a0and High Jump for 13-14, you may not want to enter both. The athlete will be forced to go back and forth between venues, tiring them out (thus affecting their performance) and requiring both events to wait for their return (sometimes the athlete never returns, so the official and all the other athletes are left waiting for no reason).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
