Only marks achieved in indoor competition will be accepted.

Qualifying Window: January 1, 2021 – February 13, 2022

* F.A.T. is the only method of timing acceptable for qualifying marks for events listed with an asterisk. Times submitted in hundredths of a second must be fully automatic times.

** A manual time may be used for qualifying in events with a double asterisk only if no fully automatic qualifying time exists for the individual in that event during the qualifying period. A manual time may not supersede any fully automatic qualifying time for an event. Qualifying manual times, for eligible events, not already listed, are always the FAT qualifying time without the last zero. Manual times will be converted for seeding purposes using USATF Rule 76.


The Sport Committee Chair will adjust the standards, where necessary, forty-five days prior to the competition, based on received entries at that time. Therefore, early submission of an entry close to the standard is advised.

Additional competitors, from those who have submitted entries, may be allowed to declare through petition to the Sport Committee Chair. Alternate qualifying events are listed below an event in parenthesis.
