ENTRY & DECLARATION STATUS CATEGORIES

*Note: All entrants should declare during the declaration period. This helps the seeding committee make decisions on “Accepting” marks that do not meet the qualifying standard for the purpose of filling the field for each event.

However, the Sport Committee will accept a non-qualified mark to fill the field only if there are an insufficient number of athletes entered who have met the qualifying standard for that event. In this case, the committee will go down the list of entered and declared athletes (that have not met the qualifying standard) only as deep as is needed to fill the field.
  • Not qualified - mark not acceptable; reasons vary
  • Not accepted - entry not accepted; reasons vary
  • Updated - mark has been updated/changed and must be re-verified
  • Declared - athlete has declared his/her intent to compete

An allocation of funds in the amount of $1,500 will be provided to athletes in each event who meet the funding criteria above. Athletes will only be eligible to receive travel funding for one event if they are entered and declared by the respective deadlines.
