Marquees can be dropped at the stadium on Thursday afternoon (during the stadium opening hours 3:00pm - 7:00pm), on Friday between 10:00am - 5:00pm, or on Saturday morning prior to 7am.

EVENT CLASHES

In the event of a competitor entering two events which overlap in the program, the competitor must inform the official when reporting for the first event. It MAY be possible for the competitor to compete in the second event as well, however a trial (jump or throw) can only be held during its designated round. Track will always take precedence over field events.
