EVENT CHECK-IN:

 

COACHES PLEASE PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO THIS SECTION

For running events:  Report to the clerk of the course when the event is called - approximately 30 minutes prior to the start of the event.  3 calls will be given for each event.  Athletes not responding to the call for their lane assignment will not be seeded into that event and will  be scratched.  We will contact the field events that are in progress to make sure your athlete is checked in, but Coaches this does not lessen your responsibility to make sure your athlete is paying attention.  Once that event is closed, that event will be seeded and there will be no additions and there will be no refunds.

Athletes switching heats or lanes will be DISQUALIFIED.

If fewer than nine (9) athletes report to the clerk, a signature will be required and then that event will be run as a final at its normal time with only those athletes who have checked in. 

For all field events  When the event is called, report directly to the field event clerk.

EVENTS:

All championship events will be contested.  Three preliminary attempts will be allowed in the field events; nine athletes will advance to the finals for three additional attempts.

ADVANCING:

The top 8 finishers in each event will advance to the Regional J.O. competition to be held June 23-24-25, 2006 in Carson, Ca.  You must enter the Region 15 meet by the end of the Association meet, which includes paying fees, and filling out the entry forms.  A completed entry form for the USATF Junior Olympics Championship meet must accompany all athletes entered individually, or on a relay.  The relay declaration forms must be filed before your team runs in the relay events at the Association championship. Fees have increased.  Regional fees are now $ 7.00 and the Junior Olympic fees are now $ 8.00.

AWARDS:

Junior Olympics medals will be awarded for 1st through 3rd place. Designate one person from each team to pick up the medals.  No awards will be distributed to any athlete.

PLEASE READ AND RELAY THIS MESSAGE TO ALL OF YOUR COACHES/PARENTS AND ATHLETES

 

Please be informed that the fees have changed across the board.  Fee changes were voted on at the annual convention this past December.

Association Junior Olympic Championships fees - $ 6.00; Regional fees - $ 7.00
Junior Olympic fees - $ 8.00;
Multi’s events fees are now:

$ 12.00 bantams thru youth- $ 15.00 intermediates and young men and woman at Association

$ 20.00 bantams thru youth- $ 24.00 intermediates and young men and woman at Junior Olympics

 

Coaches, its that time of year again and most of us have this process down to a science.  We all know what is expected and if you don’t, then it is up to you to seek the proper guidance between now and the meet.  Here are a few tips that can make your life easier.

 

1.  Apply for all membership cards prior to the meets.  I will verify through the Downey office whether or not there is a Birth Certificate on file, especially those that were applied for on-line.  Anyone attached to a team that doesn’t have their membership card and expecting to run in the meet will not be allowed to participate without all of the necessary ID and fees.  No exceptions.   (Proper identification include:  a readable, legal Birth Certificate, or drivers license, or passport.   Absolutely no hospital certificates.)

 

2.  Late entry time schedules will be strictly enforced.  All late registration will stop at the times listed on page 2.  No exceptions.

 

3.  Relay declaration forms need to be completely filled out and turn in when you pick up your package.  Coaches, you should put every athlete on your team in that particular age division on the list regardless to whether or not that athlete has any intention of going to the JO meet.  I won’t be able to check later, so please be smart and include everybody.  There will be 1 final call prior to the first relay for all relay declarations.  After that last call, your team will not be allowed to check in at the clerking tent. They will have a copy of those declarations and if it is not there YOU won’t be either.   Regardless to who you are!!!!!.  Make a duplicate copy for your own record.  I will stamp it to make it a credible copy.  COACHES PLEASE ACT RESPONSIBLE.  HAVE THEM READY FROM THE BEGINNING. 

 

4. Pre- approved forms.   You can complete your paper work and I can start approving them at the Los Angeles Jets meet.   Then once your athletes qualify at the Association meet, all you will have to do is turn in the forms plus the fees.   Complete a form for everyone that you register in the Association meet.  This will ease the lines at the end of the day.

 

5.  It is not important to fill in the association times or marks on this application.  So please don’t. I will fill that out with the official times later.  That goes for the regional results as well.

 

6.  Supplies that you should have with you at the Association meet:  Paper clips, small stapler, white out, and most important of all are your Birth Certificates, all of your membership numbers, and $7.00 per event for the athletes that go on. 

 

7.  We have got to control our athletes.  Meet  with your athletes and your parents to inform them about the troubles that we have been having.  The warnings have not been heard, so consider this their last warning.  This is really the worst time for any of your athletes to be disqualified.  So coaches do the right thing.   We don’t have many venues left.  Excuses will not be heard.

 

There has been several occasions this year where the 90-day rule has been ignored.  Please don’t try and use an excuse to CHEAT on the 90-DAY rule.  I have been informed of all situations and have checked all of the meet results.  Here and in other states.  I have not granted any exceptions at this point.  Your team will be affected by any violations that come this way.

 


Parking is $5.00 per car and you will have to pay that every time you re-enter.  You can only enter the parking lot off of the University Street entrance.  From Avalon and University intersection go east to Toro Center Drive and turn north into the parking lot.  Pay the $5.00 and enter the stadium from the east side of the stadium near the Baseball Diamond.  Parking will be more expensive ($15.00) if you try to enter from the Avalon entrance.  The Meet announcer will not be warning you or your guests about any parking “No Nos”.  So if you don’t follow these parking instructions, then you will be totally under the ruling of Home Depot and the Dominiquez Hills University.  Towing and ticketing will be enforced if you try to break the rules.  Meet management is not aware of any Handicap parking near the track stadium at this time.  So Please be aware.    Tell your families that they can pay the parking fee or they can pay the towing fees.

 

VERY IMPORTANT                    VERY IMPORTANT                    VERY IMPORTANT                    VERY IMPORTANT

Home Depot will not allow any canopies to be staked into the ground.  This means that you should bring some sort of weighted object to hold down your canopy (i.e. sandbags, etc).  There will be employees of the Home Depot walking around the field to make sure that there are no stakes in the ground and they will make you remove your canopy at once if you are found guilty of this infraction.

 

IF YOUR KIDS ARE FOUND ON THE BASEBALL DIAMOND OR ANYWHERE WONDERING AROUND HOME DEPOT OR ANYWHERE ELSE THAT IS NOT RELATED TO THE TRACK AND FIELD FACILITY, THEY WILL BE REMOVED FROM THE MEET AND THERE WILL NOT BE ANY REASON FOR YOU OR YOUR COACH TO APPEAL FOR MERCY TO THE YOUTH BOARD.

COACHES, BELOW YOU WILL FIND A COPY OF THE JUNIOR OLYMPICS PERFORMANCE STANDARDS.

THESE STANDARDS ARE THERE FOR YOUR TEAM AND ATHLETE TO USE AS A GOAL FOR THE ATHLETES THAT COULD POSSIBLY USE THEM AS A POSSIBLE SECOND CHANCE TO MAKE IT TO THE JO’S.  IF ANY OF THE TOP 3 ATHLETES DECIDE NOT TO DECLARE TO GO TO THE JO CHAMPIONSHIPS AND YOUR ATHLETE HAS REACHED THE QUALIFYING STANDARD, WE CAN MOVE THE NEXT FINISHER TO THAT NEXT POSITION.
