HIGH SCHOOL TRACK&FIELD MEET
Nutter Field House
Saturday - February 18, 2012
1401 Sports Center Drive
University of Kentucky
SANCTIONING: The University of Kentucky High School Invitational is sanctioned by USA Track & Field (USATF)
and hosted by the Kentucky Milers Club, a USATF club.
ENTRIES: Entry consideration into the Kentucky Invitational is open to any high school age athlete regardless of
state of residence. Depending on a states high school athletic associations eligibility rules, athletes may compete
as members of their high school team, a track club or as unattached competitors. Individual membership in
USATF is not required. The Kentucky Invitational is intended to be a quality competition with selective entries
based on previous, verifiable individual performances. The entry limitations in each event are intended to ensure
a quality competition in a timely, efficient format. Since the Kentucky Invitational is a selective entry competition
rather than an open or all-comers meet, submitting an entry form with an entry fee does not guarantee acceptance
into the meet. Prior to entering, please check the entry guideline page (last accepted entries in 2011,10
& 09) to determine the likelihood of being accepted into the competition. Originally we refunded entry fees of
athletes not accepted into the meet, but too many people disregarded the entry guidelines and refunding all those
fees created an administrative nightmare. Therefore, we will not refund entry fees for athletes not accepted into
the meet.
RETAIN A COPY OF YOUR ENTRY FORM TO FAX YOUR ENTRY CONFIRMATIONS.
(See CONFIRMATION OF ENTRIES at the bottom of this page)
NEATLY PRINT the full name and grade level of all entries with current, accurate, previous best performance
information. Do not submit estimated or projected performances. Please list all running event entries as fully
automatic electronic times (1:56.32). If best performances were achieved in competition using manual timing,
please add .24 seconds in all running events. IMPORTANT: For the 60m and 60m hurdles events, please use
the athletes best 100 meter or 100m/110m hurdle times. In the past weve received both indoor and outdoor
performances and we do not want to convert times. YOU MUST enter your athletes with accurate performances.
To ensure the validity of entry performances, coaches must indicate on the entry form the meet and date the entry
performance was achieved. Additionally, the Kentucky Invitational "Challenge Rule" will be available. If a coach
has reason to believe an athlete has been entered with an inaccurate performance, the coach may challenge that
performance by contacting Jim Kaiser at jimkaiser@mindspring.com. If the performance in question cannot be
verified, the athlete will be re-seeded or rejected. If accepted athletes scratch, other athletes will move up the list to
fill all events with the appropriate number of competitors. Enter field event performances in feet and inches.
