9. Throwers Relay 4x100

We will use a 3-turn stagger for this event. The 1st runner will exchange in their blue zone which is staggered after the 1st handoff occurs the 2nd runner MUST stay in his or her lane until they reach the fall line (same as 800m fall line) this will be marked by cones and coaches. The 3rd and 4th handoff will occur in traditional 4x400m relay zones marked blue on our track.
12. All field events
We will record each of your athletes best marks and add the distance or height together to create a combined overall distance or height. Example your athlete may have the #1 mark but if their teammates mark is not enough to beat the combination of another TEAM total then they will not win the event. It is a relay, which means that the best mark from all competitors will be added together.
