We highly encourage that all jumpers and vaulters go get their marks as soon as they arrive to the fieldhouse, as the area will be mostly clear before events start and will also allow for a more efficient warm up time between flights.

Triple Jump - Warm ups begin after long jump. Athletes get 3 jumps. Top flight goes first.

 

 Shot Put - Top flight goes last. 4 throws, no finals 

 

We can discuss opening heights at coaches meeting if starting height needs to be adjusted- based on entries. Please note, our goal is to provide a high level and properly timed indoor meet for our competitors, both from teams and at-large entries.
