CONDUCT OF COMPETITION: Athletes must be accompanied by a coach, parent or designated school representative due to insurance regulations.
All running events will be contested as straight finals. If more than one race is scheduled, a "sections against time" format will be utilized. Sections, heats, lanes, and flights of competition in field events will be seeded according to entry times / distances and other available performance information. The first section in the running events and the first flight in field events will be the top seeded competition. A schedule of events is enclosed. We do not currently have a time schedule of events since we do not know how many entries we will receive for this meet. Following confirmation of entries, we willl produce a tentative time schedule of events and post it on the meet web site. The "no false start" rule will be in effect.

FIELD HOUSE LOCATION: Nutter Field House is located on the south side of the UK campus between Alumni and Cooper Drives, next to Commonwealth Football Stadium.

WARM-UP LOGISTICS: Athletes must warm-up on the football field. A warm-up oval will be marked with banners on the turf. Teams will be required to "camp" or locate inside the oval, allowing athletes warming-up a clear path around the oval on the outer edges of the football field.
Warming-up will not be allowed on the track!

ATHLETE CHECK-IN: Athletes in all RUNNING EVENTS must check-in with the Clerk of Course in the southeast corner of the field house 15 minutes prior to their race. The clerk will distribute hip numbers for selected events (400-800-mile-2mile-relays). Athletes in lane races (60-60H-200) will not be required to wear hip numbers but must still check-in with the clerk of course. After receiving hip number, athletes should report to the clerk near the starting line for their race.

Athletes in all FIELD EVENTS should report to their area of competition 15-30 minutes prior to the scheduled start time. Shots will be collected and weighed 30 minutes prior to start time.
