If any of your questions aren't answered by the below information, email Meet Management.
Timing: After doing such an excellent job last year, we are thrilled to announce that all events will once again be FAT timed by Flash Results, the preeminent timing company in the country that annually handles the NCAA and USATF championship meets. In addition to providing live online results throughout the meet, Flash Results also provides two large scoreboards at the start/finish line that will display start lists, a running time clock, wind readings and instant event results. Since we will also have cameras at the 100 meter start line, we will have the ability to run the 100 meter races backwards depending on the wind direction.

Sanction: Meet will be sanctioned by the state association VHSL as well as for border states North Carolina, Tennessee and the District of Columbia. Meet will not be sanctioned for Maryland public schools as we want to allow category 3 private schools from Virginia to compete in the meet. Maryland private schools can compete though.
Online Entry System: Meet entries will be done online through MileSplit registration system. Coaches need to claim themselves as team admins on their team pages on the MileSplit network in order to have access to do their entries. All entries must be done online. No exceptions!
Entry Deadline: Entries will close online at midnight on Monday, April 27th.
Entry Limits: Teams can enter two individuals per event and one team per relay event. Each team will also be allowed two "wild card" entries per gender (so four total) where they can enter a third person in any event with no minimum standard. The wild card entries should be emailed to DogwoodTrackClassic@gmail.com
Double Entry Option:
Teams also have the option of paying more money to "double enter" the meet with the option of up to four individuals per event. The only requirement is that all four individuals must have hit the below minimum standards (posted below). If there are events where only three individuals have hit the standard, then that is okay too. Teams that opt for this option will not get the two wildcard entries.
If you are interested in this double entry option, please email us at DogwoodTrackClassic@gmail.com
Teams that pay the regular fee still receive the two wildcard entries, and do not have to hit the minimum standards for double entry. We do ask to keep in mind the "suggested entry guidelines" when entering your two athletes.
Entry Fees:
Regular Entries (2 per event with 2 wildcards)
$125 per single gender team (7 or more athletes)
$225 per combined boys and girls teams
Double Entries (Up to 4 entries per individual event as long as all have hit minimum standard. If only 3 athletes have hit the standard, that is okay but to get the maximum of 4, ALL athletes must have hit the mark)
$200 per single gender team (double entries)
$300 per combined boys and girls teams (double entries for one gender, regular entries for other)
$350 per combined boys and girls teams (double entries both)
$10 per individual or $25 per relay (if less than a complete team)
