Charger Relays 2006

Meet Information

Coaches,

I just wanted to extend an invitation to all of you to join us again

for the 3rd Charger Relays meet where all races are and field events are

run and scored as relay races. The meet is to be held at 10:00 on

Saturday, April 8.

In order to include as many schools as possible, several of the events

are scored as coed races. This includes the 4Xmile (4X1600 really), all

field events, and the 4X100-110 hurdles). There is a Clydesdale 4X100

relay for male throwers (you could sneak a girl in if you could convince

them). All other relays are run as girl relay then boys with a Sprint

medley and distance medley included. Girls and boys teams score together

to produce a final score. It really is a great event and we would like

all of you to come.

ONE IMPORTANT CHANGE... we WILL allow additional exhibition squads to

the field events, but they will not score.

FIELD EVENT ONLY: A school may perform with 3 athletes and still score

if they do not use more than two boys or two girls in the competition.

(Be sure to enter 4 names for seeding and scoring). Remember, the filed

series are a combination of the best performance of four from each

school.

Entry $$$ ($15 per school/ $3 per Spectator, $2 Students)

If you are interested in the meet:

This year the registration is online through the www.CoachO.com

website. Click on the link then select \"Online Meet Entry.

1.Register your School

2. Enter Athlete Names

3. Now scroll down to April 8 and choose the Charger Relays from the

available meets. A link to the meet information is available on the

website.

4. Register the athletes for the events...and this is the tricky part.

\"

a. Select the \"Charger Relays\" for all of your scoring entries. Go back

later and enter your extra B and C relay teams if you want to have them

seeded but do so in the Charger Relays \'Exhibition\' meet. This is not

necessary unless you would like them seeded and provided you have a time

for them.

b. You can choose to enter athletes by names (each athlete is given a

list of all the events to be chosen from) or by event. (Select the event

you want to enter and then choose from the list of athletes)

c. For the coed Field events. Enter the individual performances for

each of the 4 athletes who will score. The field events will be held

just as a regular meet and then the combined throw or jumps of the two

girls and two boys will be combined.

d. For the 4XMile and the Hurdle Relay, Select your two female athletes

and then the two male athletes. You only need to put the qualifying

mark if you want them seeded to a preferred lane (You will have to add

the 4 mile times and hurdle times to get a qualifying time.) The default

is to use NT for no qualifying mark. Athletes in this case will be

seeded randomly into lanes. IF YOU PLACE A QUALIFYING TIME FOR THESE TWO

COED RELAYS...PLACE THE TIME IN THE GIRLS RELAY TEAM ONLY.

All other relays are all boy or all girl and are fairly easy to

negotiate. Some relays (IE Sprint medley and distance medley) may

require you to calculate a relay time unless you run the event in a

practice.

Please have your entries in by 6:00 Thursday, but I may allow some late

entry till noon on Friday.

Thanks for your involvement in the past. I hope that you are not too

intimidated by the computer...It is supposed to make life easier.
