Warm Up:
Warm up may take place on the warmup track. There will be limited hurdles and training blocks for use. Please be conscious and respectful of other competitors when warming up.
Wind:
Athletics Victoria will aim to turn the track to suit the wind conditions, where possible. As is the nature with all weather, it can change. Please note, back straight camera’s and photo finish equipment can take up to 2 hours to set up, so decisions to turn or not turn the track are often made 1.5-2 hours before the first scheduled track event.
As the back straight camera’s and photo finish equipment is temporary, please expect some minor delays in programing and start times. We kindly ask you to resepct the officials in working through any technical difficulty to ensure optimal competition conditions.
Long Jump:
Both Male and Female Pools will have 15 competitors, to accomodate for the increase number of entries. Only the Top 8 Male & Female athletes will receive an additional 3 attempts, athletes whom do not qualify for the additional jumps will only receive the first 3 attempts.
