Admission
Admission for spectators is $6 per person. VHSL approved passes will be accepted.
Parking
Fluvanna County High School releases at 3:25pm. In order to avoid congestion, we ask that all teams arrive prior to 2:30. Busses will be directed where to park upon arrival, which will be inside the main stadium gates. These buses will need to stay for the entirety of the meet. Cars will park in the parking lot right next to the track.
Spectators
Spectators can watch the meet from either the home or visitor bleachers. No spectators will be allowed on the infield. Areas will be flagged off to watch the Shot Put and Discus. Please stay behind the flag barriers for the safety of both the student-athletes and other spectators. Long and triple jump will have barriers marked off. We ask that all coaches, spectators and athletes not competing in long or triple jump remain on the track side of the ropes. This area becomes congested and can become hazardous. The pole vault pit is on the infield. For this reason, only coaches and competing athletes will be allowed on the infield. Spectators may watch from the stands or outside the fence.
Team Tents
Team tents are not allowed in the bleachers. The bleachers are for spectators only. Please do not make camp in the bleachers, your team will be asked to move. Team tents are limited to grassy areas only. We would like to keep the bleachers clear for spectators since they have limited access to most areas of the track complex.
Starting Heights
Starting heights will be based on the field of entries.
Warm-Ups
Warm-ups for running events should be completed on the fields surrounding the track. Hurdlers will be allowed to warm-up in the outer lanes during the 4x800m relay. The amount of time allotted for warm-ups for the field events will be determined by the number of athletes in the event
Spikes
1/4 or 1/8 pyramid spikes only. No exceptions. Any athlete found in violation of this rule will be disqualified from the meet. That includes any previous performances that occurred before the infraction.
Relay Cards
Please turn in relay cards to the starter when checking in. Please be sure to include school, gender, event and relay team members. Relay cards will be in your team packets.
Athletic Trainer
A certified athletic trainer will be available at the finish line.
Bullpen
The bullpen will be located near the high jump apron at the 100/110 starting line on the infield. We ask that participants are in the bullpen by 2nd call so that they can move to the starting line after the 3rd call. Check in for field events will be at the field event. Coaches are allowed on the infield. All participants should exit the track at the gate nearest the finish line. Athletes jumping the fence will be given one warning. After the warning is given, the next infraction will result in disqualification. No electronic devices should be used in the infield areas.
Declaration Rule
Scratching a participant from an event does not affect any remaining events that the student may be entered in. However, once a participant is declared in the maximum number of track events, coaches may not scratch them from an individual event and then enter them into a relay.
