Event Rules
All events will be run under World Athletics Rules except for the following:-
- The minimum team size for each team will need to be 8 people to compete at each event.
- Your team will be allocated bib numbers for each athlete by the entry / results administrator, please ensure all athletes have the correct number on thier hand and when they report to events they can let the officials know their bib number so their result can be recorded correctly.
- For field events excluding Pole Vault and High Jump, All athletes have 3 trials with the leading six having three further trials if time allows.
- For the Hammer Throw events, the Men and Women have 55 mins to complete their throws. We have allowed a 10min Warmup for the Women and while we acknowldge this is limited, we have tried to accomodate everyone as best we can.
- For all field events, the start time for the next field event for that gender, will be the end of the field event that is in operation for that gender. i.e. if 4 rounds have been completed for Men’s Shot Put and the Men’s Discus is to start, then Shot Put concludes and Discus commences.
- An athlete can throw the weight of the implement they may use at the NZ Secondary Schools Champs or as per the World Athletics rules for their age. This in effect makes the throws a handicap event.
- An athlete can request a distance including hurdle heights they may use at the NZ Secondary Schools Champs or as per the World Athletics rules for their age. The host club or region can decide if this is feasible to incorporate the request or not.
- If a team cannot confirm they have 2 officials at a meet, they may be excluded from the following meet.
- Athletes must be a minimum of 12 years of age turning 13 by the end of the year of the competition.
- All athletes must report 10mins before the start of their event. If you do not report 10mins beforehand, then you may not be able to compete.
