EQUIPMENT

·    All teams must have uniform tops. T-shirts will be fine.

·    7th and 8th grade athletes may wear up to 1/4" track spikes.  All 4-6^th grade athletes must wear non-spiked athletic shoes; this excludes all spiked track shoes even if the spikes are removed.  Any participant discovered to be using illegal shoes will be automatically disqualified by CYO officials and or commissioners.

·    Boys will use the 8-lb. shot and girls will use the 6-lb. shot.

RULES

All CYO Athletics Track and Field teams will participate in accordance with the current National Federation Track & Field rules unless otherwise specified in this manual or the rules herein outlined.

·    Rosters must be turned into CYO Athletics prior to the Qualifying Meet. No team will be allowed additions to the roster after this time. Rosters must be on current forms with the boys and girls separated. They must also be in grade order starting with the fourth grade. 

·    All parishes/schools wanting to combine to form a team must submit a request to the CYO Athletics office before the registration deadline.  Each case will be reviewed independently and all decisions will be determined by the Associate Director of CYO Athletics in consultation with the Track & Field Commission.  The review will be based on the number of programs involved and the total number of athletes participating.  We desire a situation where no cuts occur, but we want every athlete to be able to compete in multiple events.

·    AA/AAA configuration will be determined once the rosters are turned into the office of CYO Athletics

·    All teams are responsible to provide volunteers for all meets. Volunteer assignments will be given out at the coaches meeting and will be on the lane assignment sheet.

·    CYO Track & Field is for 4th graders and up. You may add 3rd graders to your roster only when you have less than eight (8) 4th grade boys or girls, and then you may add only enough 3rd graders to bring your total 4th grade team roster to 8 boys or 8 girls.

·    A contestant must remain in the same grade division for all events in which they compete. An exception to this rule allows a youth to run in an older grade division relay while still competing within his/her own grade division in the individual events. A contestant may enter three events only: one running, one relay, and one field event (with the exception of the Sprint Medley Relay & 4 x 400m Coed Relay).

·    In the 4th through 8th grade sprints, there will be "A" heats for the quickest runners and "B" heats for the remaining competitors.

·    *All 400m races are run in lanes. In all grades, when a team enters more than one runner (3 maximum), the fastest runner will be placed 1st, second fastest 2nd, etc, all in the same lane.

·    Coaches must remain in the stands during all meets (except for the Preliminary Meet). Only contestants who are participating, or whose event has been called shall be on the field.

·    Contestants must start from a standing or crouching set position only. In all running events where lanes are assigned, runners must remain in their assigned lanes. Contestants will be disqualified for impeding runners in other lanes.

·    6th graders are allowed to participate in either the softball throw or the shot put.

·    In relay races, teams shall provide their own batons. All shuttle relay teams will be right hand to right hand. Teams will be disqualified for using a running start in shuttle relay races. Both feet of the runner must be behind the starting line until they have touched the hand of the oncoming runner.

All Meets:

400m Relay (all grades) - one relay per team,
per grade/gender.
Shuttle Relay (4th and 5th grade) - one relay per team,

Individual Championship and All-Comers Meet For the Individual Championship, the first three finishers at each of the two qualifying meets in each sprint, 400m relay and all field events will qualify.
