For Peninsula Track Athletes -  2005

NANAIMO MEET SCHEDULE (ELWOOD WYLIE MEET)  -  May 28 and 29. To get to the Track in Nanaimo, go around the bypass for about 4 km  until you get to College Road (turnoff for Malaspina University College).  Turn Right and proceed to first lights ( part  way down hill).  Turn Left and proceed for about 2 blocks.  The track is behind Nanaimo Secondary School on the left. You can park in the school lot if there is room or in a lot just before the school.  ABOUT 1 ¾ HOURS FROM SIDNEY.  (Copy this Form and Map on Pen Track Website at: www.pentrack.org )

 

It is advisable to get to the track at least 1 hour before the first event you want to compete in.  This will allow you  time to get your stickers, to warm up and to ensure that you will be there if the event starts early (up to ½ hour earlier is allowed). 

Highlight your events and times on the schedule below.  You should CHECK the schedules  posted at the meet to make sure that  this schedule is still valid for your events.

RESULTS FROM THIS MEET WILL BE POSTED ON WEB SITES.  IF YOU DO NOT WISH YOUR CHILD’S NAME TO APPEAR ON A WEB SITE, PLEASE DO NOT ENTER HIM OR HER IN THIS MEET.

VANCOUVER ISLAND TRACK AND FIELD SERIES:

To insure that our athletes get exposure to competition under friendly and enjoyable conditions, the Track clubs on Vancouver Island host SEVEN meets during April, May and June.  Most  events for athletes born in 1996 and earlier are available at these meets (sometimes pole vault, hammer and steeplechase are omitted).  Ribbons are given to the top eight finishers in each event at each age level at each meet .  Full schedule is on the club website:  www.pentrack.org .

 

SERIES AWARDS (really neat rosettes) are given to athletes who compete in FOUR of six meets.  There are two such awards for each age group:  Best four performances at different meets and best Run, Jump and Throw performances during the season.  A points system based on performance (similar to pentathlon and decathlon scoring), placing and participation is used. There will also be a series award for competing in Relays.  Performances from the Pentathlon/Throws meet on June 5 will be counted but the meet itself is not counted as one of the four.

 

PENINSULA TRACK’S FORMAL OFFICIATING DUTIES ARE AT THE TIMING STATION BY THE FINISH LINE AND AT THE LONG JUMP.  WE NEED VOLUNTEERS ON BOTH DAYS. In addition any parent who is available may be called on to help out at any event during the meet. 

 

Notes: Track events run from oldest to youngest. All track events should start on time. However, all events may start up to one half hour before scheduled time. Athletes should not leave their field event for a track event until their age/gender division is called by the announcer. Parents or coaches may want help by standing near the track marshalling area monitoring the progress of events.  Athletes must return to their field event as soon as they complete a track event.

Upon returning to the field event you may find that you have missed one or more turns. The rules state that  if you checked with the officials before you left you can be allowed back into the competition but only at the point in the competition that exists when you return.  You are not allowed to go back and do jumps or throws that you missed while doing the track event .  Therefore, you should check into the field event when it is called, you should leave for the track event as close to its start as possible letting the field  officials know you are leaving, and return to the field event as quickly as possible after doing the track event. 

Sometimes, you may just have to make a choice as to which event you want to do.  Other times you may have a conflict between two field events and you will have to run back and forth between the two.  However, the persons creating the schedule try to avoid having this happen.

The times in the above table very often have to be modified during the meet itself due to weather, numbers of competitors and other factors, so if you are doing several events pay attention to what is going on at the other locations and try to keep track of any time changes for the events you plan on competing in. ALL EVENTS MAY BE MOVED UP TO ½ HOUR EARLIER THAN ORIGINALLY SCHEDULED.

 

TAKE LOTS OF WARM CLOTHING WITH YOU EVEN IF THE DAY LOOKS NICE IN THE MORNING.  IT IS EASY TO REMOVE EXTRA CLOTHING BUT YOU CAN BE VERY MISERABLE IF YOU DON’T HAVE ENOUGH CLOTHING WITH YOU AND IT GETS COLD OR WINDY.  NANAIMO HAS COVERED STANDS BUT THERE IS OFTEN A NASTY WIND.  IT IS WISE TO ALWAYS TAKE AN UMBRELLA AND DRY CLOTHING WITH YOU WHEN YOU GO TO ANY MEET.  A WATER BOTTLE IS ESSENTIAL AND SOME SNACK FOOD IS NICE.  NANAIMO HAS A CONCESSION STAND.
