COMPETITIONS

Club athletes may be entered in track and field meets, cross country and road races. The Club pays entry fees for events authorized by the Board of Directors (up to six per meet for JD’s, four for older athletes). NorWesters pays only the fee portion for events where the cost of a T-shirt or other souvenir is included. Club members are encouraged to enter as many events as they wish. Parents with be given the full schedule of events for each age group. If an athlete enters more than three events on one day the Meet Entries Co-ordinator may check with the coach to ascertain if this is advisable for the athlete.

Relay teams are selected by the coaches. Otherwise the athletes themselves choose their events. Most track meets place no restrictions on athletes in regards to number of events or entry standards. Where these are in effect they are strictly followed.
