Bib Numbers, Hip Numbers, Chip Timing

Each athlete will be assigned a bib number, one hip number to be worn on the left hip, and two data tags at packet pick up.  Athletes in all races will be required to wear all of these identifiers to ensure races are properly scored.

Athletes must wear the bib numbers and data tags assigned to them on the information sheet in their packet.  If any of these are lost or forgotten, replacements can be supplied at packet pick up on the day of the race for a fee.  Bib number replacement fee is $5.00 and chip replacements are $10.00.

The bib number must be worn on the front of the athlete’s outer layer of race clothing and cannot be folded or altered in any way.    Each number will have a pull tab at the bottom.  Do not remove pull tab at the bottom of the bib or put safety pins through the tab.

Protests

A protest site will be set up at the meet venue.  Protests relating to matters which develop during the conduct of the competition must be made to the meet referee at once and not later than 30 minutes after a result has been announced.  The fee to file a protest is $100.  The fee will be returned if the protest is upheld.
 

Team Scoring

Team scoring is divided into five divisions for boys and five divisions for girls. The athlete’s year of birth shall determine the division in which the athlete shall compete.
 

Uniforms

Each competitor on a qualifying team must have a jersey or singlet that is basically identical in color and style to those worn by his/her teammates.  The team jersey must be clearly visible throughout the entire race.  This means the team jersey should be worn as the outside layer of the clothing if other garments are worn during the race.  Athletes who are unattached or who compete for a team not in the team competition may wear any apparel as long as it is safe, not offensive, and has the athlete’s bib number attached to the outside layer.
