Athletes are responsible for forming their own relay teams. Relay team members MUST wear like-color shirts while competing. Athletes may run in different age divisions but relays comprised of persons under the age of 18 years must run in the oldest age division. These events will not count as one of an athlete's three (3) individual events.

Competition Format

Events will begin with the youngest age division and progress through all age divisions. Female contestants in each age division will compete first, followed by the male contestants in that age division. In events with only a few competitors, the meet management reserves the right to contest divisions together. Field event competitors MUST check-in at their field event prior to the start of competition. In all track events, heats will be run with the best time determining the finals placing (except 100 M Dash).
