• TigerInvitational.org    Meet website
• No Coaches allowed on the track or infield during the track races. We will have wristbands for field event coaches in the LJ/TJ, HJ and PV. There will be a coaches box set up for coaches in each event. Coaches must stay in the coaches box of that event. Wandering track coaches will be kindly returned to their event box. 😉
•  Please contact Director Coach CB Richards (head coach South Pasadena HS Track Teams) by email with questions: cbrichards600@gmail.com

• The time schedule will be set after entries are finalized in early April. We will follow the Event order below: 
• We did move a few events around from your normal Calif CIF event schedule.

• DISCUS! was officially added for the 2022 meet and we will have discus for 2024. The Discus ring is installed across from the stadium near our softball field. Big Thank you to Notre Dame Sherman Oaks Throws Coach Nick Garcia for making his ring and net available to South Pasadena. More instructions will be given for this event  Thank you for following that guideline.

• Distance races and field events will be overseeded in anticipation of scratched. No alternates will be listed in those events.
• In the lane races once the scratch window closes we will move in the next athlete in any lane race and we will seed the meet.  We will not have alternates in any events on meet day.

• Team invoice will be calculated after accepted entries are posted.  Teams pay for all accepted entries. If a team scratches an athlete after accepted entries are finalized, that does not change the teams invoice amount due. So Coaches please confirm with your athletes on attending before entering them into the meet. We will have to cut 1000’s of entries as this is a highly entered track invitational. If you take an entry we could have given to another school, you will simply be charged for it. 

• Late entry request. I have a few of the events with spots left open for late entries, some coaches have issues with not getting their athletes into Arcadia and missed our registration entry deadline. If we are able to accommodate any of these late late requests: There is a $50 administration late charge on top of entry fees, for that additional admin work that is needed at that point to make a late add happen. Please be aware of this before you contact for possible late adds. 

• Team Fees:  (fees are based on a team’s total entries after the scratch window closes. NOT THE TOTAL NUMBER OF ATHLETES ACCEPTED.  If a team has only one individual athlete doing 4 events that would be 4 events x40$ each for $160. See the calculations below to determine your team fees. It scales lower as the more accepted entries a team. It lowers the per event fee according to the scale below)
  • • 1-4 individual entries:  $40 per entry 
      •  (ex: 4 entries x $40= $160)
    • 5-10 individual entries  $30 per entry
      • (ex: 10 entries x $30= $300)
    • 11-16 individual entries $25 per entry 
      • (ex: 15+ entries x $25 =$375)  
    • 17+ individual entries $20 per entry 
      • (ex: 20+ entries x $20 =$400)  
    • $40 per each relay 

• • • There is no team max cap as this meet is mainly a smaller number of entries per school. Now a handful of schools do have a high number of accepted entries and need assistance with their team max fees, you can email me individually and we will take that max cap in a case by case situation.  I will email you back our agreed upon max cap total for your school:  cbrichards600@gmail.com
