TRACK MEETS
February 28th is the first official day of practice. The last regular season meet is the last week of April followed immediately by our Championship Season during the first 2 weeks of May and the State Meet in the 3rd week of May. 

How to prepare for meets:
  • UNIFORM
  • Training shoes, socks
  • Spikes or flats
  • Water bottle & Snacks
  • DRESS WARMER than it looks.  
  • running pants, long sleeve & short sleeve shirt, sweatshirt 
  • Blanket and pillow
  • Cash (commemorative t-shirts and snack bars at invitational meets)
  • SCHOOL WORK

***Cell phones, iPods, MP3 players, or other electronic devices are prohibited on the track and/or the field event areas during competitions according to CHSAA rules. We cannot be responsible for any valuables brought to practice or to meets, so please leave all valuables at home!

Meet Participation
Per CHSAA rules, athletes are only allowed to compete in 12 meets per season.  If an athlete starts a meet, that will count as one.  All athletes must have 3 practices before competing in their first meet. All athletes are expected to attend our home meets to either participate or assist: Mercury Invite and Tri/Duals. Athletes may not participate in Track & Field practices or competitions outside of BHS Athletics without the correct CHSAA documentation--see coach for details.  Athletes who miss school leading up to a meet are NOT eligible to participate in the meet that day-- this includes UNEXCUSED CLASS ABSENCES!

Meet Times
Monday Meets are fairly short in duration and *should* not last past 8:30pm. 
Invitational Meets usually last 6-8 hours, depending on the size of the meet.  Some Invitational meets have standards that must be reached during the regular season; therefore, not all athletes will travel to every meet.  If we have room on the bus, we encourage ALL athletes to attend unless they will be missing school. 

Traveling
Uniforms/warm-ups MUST be worn during the entire meet, including the bus ride to the meet. PRIDE! The warm-up will consist of the team issued (or purchased) Red BHS Track Jacket and black pants. Pants should be solid black or black with “BHS Track” down one leg. 

BUS TRAVEL 
The bus will leave from the track to give us enough time to travel to the meet and to arrive with no less than one hour before the first event. 

Our EXPECTATION is that all athletes ride the bus to meets as we often use the time on the bus as a pre-team meeting.  Although meets can be rather long and some athletes may finish their event early, we encourage athletes to stay at the meet to cheer for their teammates. TEAM FIRST ATTITUDE! Every event matters, including the last event.  

FOR SAFETY & LEGAL PURPOSES, Coaches cannot arrange transportation when we do not provide a bus. Please see the schedule for days that may happen (usually return buses are not scheduled when we compete within a 20 mile radius of the school).  We will communicate this with the athletes, but it is the parent’s responsibility to look at the schedule and ensure their athlete has transportation. ALL ATHLETES MUST VERBALLY check out with the head coach if they leave a meet early–Although, keep our ONE RULE in mind before leaving. 

Championship Meets 
Leagues  (Front Range League) There will be a JV and Varsity League Championship; therefore, all athletes will have a chance to compete at a Championship level. 
State The top 18 ranked athletes from the 5A classification in each event will continue to State Finals. See MaxPreps for updated rankings, which change every week.
