on the “Online Entry” (Schools not set up on the site will need to first register their team and

• Step-2: The first step only enters your school…now you need specify the division and genders of the 
athletes to enroll in the meet. Click the button: “Enter Team”  to enter your athletes and they will 
race for. Only select the 10 girls and 10 boys who are qualified to run in the region (From these 10 and 
only these 10 can your team of 7 runners compete at the Region and State).

TSSAA, Region Director (Michael Fingerle is keeping paper work for Region 3 and 4), and keep a 
copy…These are the official entries. 
• Step-4: Collect signed waiver forms for the use of the TVA Chickamauga Dam. (If you ran in the 
Chattanooga Cross Country Festival, we already have a copy of this waiver for any athlete if you turned 
one in for them.) Turn these in at the registration table.
