[Direct Athletics Registration] [Meet schedule] [Meet Program] [Results]
FIELD EVENTS: Each individual throw /jump athlete will receive
(4) attempts with no Finals. Markers will be used for the throws competitions. Only the
BEST throw by each competitor will be measured at the end. Each horizontal jump will be measured.
STARTING HEIGHTS: WOMEN’S Pole Vault 2.14m (7’0”), MEN’S Pole Vault 3.05m (10’) with each height increasing by
15cm.
WOMEN’S High Jump 1.30m (4’3”), MEN’S High Jump 1.66 m (5’5.25”) with each height increasing by 5cm.
POLE VAULT & HIGH JUMP:
MEN’S HIGH JUMP WILL GO FIRST FOLLOWED BY THE WOMEN. THE WOMEN’S POLE VAULT WILL BEGIN EITHER 30 MINUTES FOLLOWING THE CONCLUSION OF THE HIGH JUMP OR 1:00 P.M. WHICHEVER IS LATER. WE WILL BE VAULTING IN TWO PITS SIMULTANEOUSLY. MEN’S VAULT IN BOTH PITS WILL FOLLOW THE CONCLUSION OF THE WOMEN.
WEIGHT-INS: These will take place from 7:30am-Noon Saturday. They will take place at the northwest corner of the track at the track shed. If you are at 
Point Loma on Friday we would request that you leave your implements then and we will weight them all in on Friday night.
THE HAMMER THROW: The hammer event will be thrown on the lower field just west of the track. This facility has been used as our practice area. The left sector line goes a full distance but has cliff immediately to its left. Therefore, any left sector foul will most likely go over that cliff. The right sector line runs about 80’ before it ends into a hillside. Being that throws can’t easily be measured from up on the hillside, if a throw is deemed to be within the sector but lands in the hillside, the competitor will receive another throw.
I want all throwers and throws coaches to know that this will not be an “ideal” situation, especially for throws longer than 200’. The only other option is to NOT hold a hammer competition.
