TrackFest 2023

Saturday, May 13, 2023

Are the relays included as one of the three events a student can enter?

No; New to 2019, the relays are no longer included as one of the three (3) individual events a participant can register for. Participants may now enter three (3) individual events, plus a relay.

If we can have three (3) relay teams, is that three (3) boys and three (3) girls relay teams or three (3) combined?

Yes, each school is permitted to enter up to three (3) girls’ and three (3) boys’ relay teams per grade category.

Is the Trackie.reg fee $5 per child or $5 per child per event?

The cost is a flat fee of $5 per student. Whether they register for one (1) event, relay only, or three (3) events, the cost is still $5.

If an athlete is in Grade 4, but they are supposed to be in Grade 5, do they still compete in with the Grade’s 5 and 6 or in Grades 3 and 4?

Athletes must compete in the grade they are in at school, not age groups.

If a coach picks three (3) students to advance, is this three (3) in total or three (3) boys and three (3) girls?

A coach can select three (3) girls and three (3) boys for each competition grade category for each event. There are two grade categories (3&4 and 5&6). There are six (6) events, not including relays. So you can bring 18 girls and 18 boys(36 total), not including your relay teams and any participants in the wheelchair events.

My school does not have hurdles; what could we substitute?

A coach can improvise by using foam pool noodles and placing them across as hurdles; they can be raised to the specifications indicated on the TrackFest information sheet.
