Meet Day Information -Reminder please inform your team that it is a no spectator event. Parents, Guardians, Friends will not be allowed to enter the building. If student-athletes are being picked up by family members you can arrange to have your athlete meet them outside the team access area in the UC Lobby.
-Team Drop Off/Pick Up, and Entrance/Exit will be on the North side of the University Commons next to the large Garage Door. Team Bus/Vans can continue straight ahead in UC North Parking Lot (the lot across from the outdoor basketball courts). This will be the only area where teams can access the building. All other entries will be blocked off and only be accessible by the EMU Community. Please do not enter through the main doors of UC or the top of the track. A REPRESENTATIVE FROM EMU TRACK & FIELD WILL MEET EACH TEAM TO GIVE AN ORIENTATION OF THE FACILITY AND EVENT PROTOCOL
-Team Staging/Camp Area - Team Staging will take place on gym floors B & C. There will be a set of Double Doors for entry and exit into the gym. These will be the only doors your athletes will be able to utilize. No team staging will take place anywhere else in the University Commons.
- Entering/Exiting the Track - competing athletes/coaches can enter the track near the stairwell where teams entered the building. This is the only access point to the track. Non-competing athletes will not be permitted to be on the track due to safety and liability. Once an athlete is finished competing they can remain in the Clerking Area to prepare for the next race or return to the gym floor.
-Clerking Area - Track Athletes will exit through double doors in the gym and head up the stairwell to the left. From there they will be directed to the Group Exercise Room where they will check in for their race, receive their hip number, heat and lane assignments. They will also be able to check in their spikes. This will be the only way athletes and coaches will be able to access the upper track area.
-Spikes - 1/4 Spikes for all track events and pole vault. Spikes are not to be put on until they leave the Clerking Area and return to track surface. Athletes will have to take off spikes prior to leaving the track and heading down the stairwell back into the gym. Vaulters must stay on the runway or carpet path laid out next to the runway. If athletes are seen off the runway or carpet area they will be asked to remove their spikes and compete in trainers.
-Warm Up Area - There will be a small warm up area outside of the Clerking Area on the turn. This area will be limited to athletes whose races are on deck. Athletes may also warm up outside.
