Meet Information
MILESPLIT INSTRUCTIONS for
Norwin Home Section Meets
MEET REGISTRATION: The deadline is 9:00 pm on day BEFORE the meet (so if meet Tuesday 3.30..register by Monday 3.29 by 9:00 pm.
The point of registering is to allow our timing system to complete the ENTIRE MEET online--scoring and results. I know this is a bit of a new process for section meets for some, but this will allow ALL ATHLETES to be in the meet and expedite everything and eliminate any hand scoring errors. All results will be posted with NAMES and F.A.T. times, etc.
Link to Meet: we will send you Registration link for race. The meet will be on PaMileSplit calendar as
Norwin, Latrobe & Butler (Tues. 3.30.2021): REGISTRATION LINK
2019 Playoff Meet Example: (this was from meet in 2019 where we preregistered) https://pa.milesplit.com/meets/357123-wpial-aaa-playoff-semi-norwin-2019/entries#.YFS189wpDIU
MAY ENTER UP TO 10 ATHLETES PER EVENT. This allows coaches flexibility of adjusting line up for injuries or strategy.
You do NOT need to enter athletes for relays.
Field scratches just made at event or NOT contested.
MUST ENTER A SEED. PaMileSplit does NOT allow you to enter without a seed.
You can be as honest as you want on these seeds, but MUST ENTER A REAL seed or our timers have to go through and fix all entries (EX/ if you enter an athlete in the 800m as 12.4 seconds, it will spit out as an error).
You do NOT need to include MEET LOCATION and DATE, just athletes and whatever seed you decide to write.
Races and Field Events are NOT SEEDED.
Clerk athletes in at event or field location. Our meet workers will CLERK athletes in before his or her race or at field event once called.
For instance, we will clerk athletes in prior to race and give hip number. This will only hold up the meet a few minutes, but will provide for a much smoother scoring and timing.
Athletes will be rotated on lane preference on normal meet rotation.
Field Events need to do nothing different. They go to his or her event and do jumps and throws and it's recorded just like an Invitational.
Same with distance events and relays. We would just mark which athletes are NOT starting the race based on hip numbers.
ONLY ATHLETES entered may compete in events. It's an unlimited event entry, so if you want to sign a kid up for 10 events you can, but they can only compete in 4 events as usual.
ALL ENTRIES will be public on the meet page: This way all teams have the same advantage and nothing is kept hidden in terms of entries.
Just click on the "ENTRIES" button. This way there is no advantage to any team.
I hope this all makes sense. If it does NOT or have any QUESTIONS please email Coach Fleckenstein (bfleckenstein@norwinsd.org ). I will email or call you back with a response.
