Masters Track & Field
Chair Report - June, 2010 - Gary Snyder

"Building the base, growing the future."

Sacramento July 22-25, 2010

If you intend to compete NOW is the time to enter in order to avoid a $50 late fee. On time entries end June 25th. Late entries end July 3rd. I understand the Dorm rooms are sold out but there are plenty of hotels rooms available.
Don’t forget we recognize the Athletes of Year during the Saturday evening dinner so buy a ticket.

United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) - Education Sessions

As part of the preparation to implement athlete testing at the 2011 USA Masters Outdoor Championships USADA will conduct education sessions in Sacramento. One is scheduled at 5:00 PM on Friday July 23rd and the other on Saturday at 8:00 AM. In addition to these sessions USADA will staff a USATF tent where representatives will answer your questions and provide useful handouts. I strongly encourage you to attend a session and hear it first hand from the experts. Specific details regarding how many tests, which athletes will be tested etc are still being discussed.
