Logistics

Field Pit Check-in:  All Field athletes will check in through the call tent at the Morgan Wonderland Sports Complex.  You will be directed to proceed to your assigned pit.  Check the flight sheets for event times as Ambulatory throwers have events starting on each hour. Check in 30 minutes before your event.

Warm-ups:  Ambulatory throwers come prepared to throw. Two warm-up throws in competition order will be allowed.  Seated throwers will receive 4 or 5 minutes by classification per WPA Rule 35.5

Field Chairs:  Each athlete will transport their chair to the pit area, and they will be checked at the pit. 

Implements:  Event management implements will be available at the pits.  Personal implements will be delivered to the assigned pits after they have been approved for use. The implement must be cleaned prior to turn in by the athlete. They will be available for return at the end of the competition at the drop off point.

Track:  Track staging will be from the large tent at the south end of the track (just past finish line).

We will run on a timed schedule unless we get behind.  Then we will switch to a rolling schedule.

 

Results:  Preliminary and Final results will be posted online.

Sunday, April 27: 9:30 AM - 12:30 PM   Field Results/Medals available for pickup:
