GIRLS AND BOYS PENTATHLON

Due to athletes wishing to qualify for New Balance in the multi-events, we have introduced a Pentathlon so that they can achieve these marks. With many athletes not having the opportunity to compete in this event very often, we have instituted the following qualification procedures and parameters.

• EVENT IS CAPPED AT 12 COMPETITORS - FIRST COME-FIRST SERVED • ENTRY FEE IS $50 Per Athlete. This does not cover individual events. Only Pentathlon. • Entry Fees must be paid at packet pickup to receive a packet. No Online Payment. • 10 SPOTS WILL BE RESERVED FOR THE FIRST 10 AUTOMATIC QUALIFIERS WHO REGISTER IF YOU PARTICIPATED IN THE FOLLOWING EVENTS: o 2019 Your State High School Championships Heptathlon/Decathlon (any class) o 2019 AAU/USATF Junior Olympics Heptathlon/Decathlon o 2019 NBIN Nationals Pentathlon or NBON Nationals Heptathlon/Decathlon • The final 2 spots will be reserved for the highest point scorers who did not receive one of the first 10 spots. This allows competitors who have not completed a pentathlon/decathlon or were not one of the first 10 to qualify automatically. They will be ranked by the standard decathlon scoring tables across the events available in the Pentathlon. For instance, an athlete has only competed in the Shot Put and the 60m Hurdles but not the High Jump/Long Jump or 1000m. They can use those two events to gain a point total. We will rank all those athletes point totals and select the top 2 competitors by point total (or more if less than 10 automatically would qualify). • You must enter via the google form just below the qualifying procedures. It will ask for meet location/dates as well as best marks which will be used for qualifying as well as for seeding in the 60H. Entries will open at on 11/1/2019 and close on 1/28/20 at midnight (EST). • This event is not a qualifier for state.
