Qualifying Guidelines

  1. All qualifying performances for running events must be made on a standard indoor or 400m outdoor track.
  2. Qualifying marks must be made in accordance with USATF Rule 149 and verifiable in one of the following:
    1. USATF- or IAAF-sanctioned events that prescribe to or exceed USATF competition rules,
    2. collegiate meets in which events prescribe to or exceed USATF competition rules, or
    3. high school meets, except dual and triangular meets
  3. All qualifying marks must be attained during the qualifying windows shown above.
  4. Fully automatic timing (F.A.T.) is the only method of timing acceptable for qualifying marks for events equal to or shorter than 200 meters.
  5. A manual time may be used for qualifying for events of 1500 meters and longer only if no F.A.T. qualifying time exists for the race during the qualifying period. A manual time may not supersede any F.A.T. qualifying time for an event. Qualifying manual times, for eligible events, are the F.A.T. qualifying time without the last zero for events 3000m and longer; the F.A.T time minus 0.14 for events 400m - 1 Mile. The seed time for a submitted manual time will be in accordance with USATF Rule 76.
  6. Times submitted in hundredths of a second must be F.A.T. times.
  7. An entered athlete attaining a qualifying mark within one-tenth percent (0.1%) of the standard for a running event, 3 cm below the standard for the discus, javelin, or hammer, 2 cm below the standard for the shot put, or 1 cm below the standard for other field events may declare their desire to compete during the normal declaration period. Athletes within this allowance may be accepted into the competition by the Sport Committee Chair when positions are available in existing heats or sections in running events or when the number of competitors in a field event is fewer than the stated field size.
  8. The Sport Committee Chair will adjust the standards, where necessary, 45 days prior to the competition, based on received entries at that time. Therefore, early submission of an entry close to the standard is advised.
  9. All performances are subject to verification.
