Meet Information
The Judy Thomas Invitational will be held on Saturday, April 6th, 2019 at Patrick Henry High School in Glade Spring, Va. The rain date will be Monday, April 8th, 2019.
When entering the meet, you must enter each individual athlete on your team in the events that they will be competing in. Your athletes will not be entered into the meet if you only add your school name to the list.
*** SOMETHING NEW THAT WE ARE DOING THIS YEAR- Many of you, including us, have throwers or runners that are good but not quite in the top three in their event to go to the invitational meets. For the Judy Thomas this year, every team can enter three individuals in each individual event. Also, you can enter extra runners in an event for $10.00 per athlete. For example, if you decide to enter 5 individuals in the girls 100 meters you would pay 20 extra dollars for the two extra runners at 10 dollars each.
AWARDS:
Top two schools, boys and girls, will receive plaques and the top six individuals will receive medals along with the top three relays.
*** When entering events, we are doing the Swedish Relay (100, 200, 300, 400). MAKE SURE YOU REMEMBER THIS WHEN ENTERING THIS RELAY BECAUSE IT'S NOT 200, 200, 400, 800. IT'S 100, 200, 300, 400.
