GENERAL REGULATIONS

TSSAA Uniform Rule All uniforms must follow the NFHS Rules. The referee will warn every participant prior to the meet that they must compete in a legal uniform, and if a contestant competes in an illegal uniform, then that contestant is disqualified from that event. There are no team warnings or individual warnings after the meet begins. Officials should use preventative officiating as much as possible.

TEAMS

A team will consist of a minimum of five and a maximum of seven. However, if a school does not have a team it may enter less than five runners in the individual division of the meet. No school shall enter more than seven participants in the regional cross country meet. In Division I and Division II Class A, a maximum of 10 people may be listed on the entrance form, any seven of which may run at the regional meet. Should the team qualify for the state meet, any seven of the 10 may run in the state meet. In Division II Class AA, a maximum of 10 people may be listed on the state entrance form, any seven of which may run at the state meet.

REGIONAL MEETS

The cross country course at the region meet shall be three miles or five kilometers (5K). At the regional cross country meet each year, the coaches involved shall select the site of the following year's regional cross country meet and the director. If at the completion of the regional meet it is discovered that a participant who had not been entered in the meet for a team illegally entered the course and crossed the finish line, the illegal participant and all members of the team are disqualified. No member of the disqualified team would be allowed to participate in the state meet.
