SECTIONAL AND INVITATIONAL MEETS

Most meets are held at high school stadiums on Saturdays.  There are usually hundreds of athletes participating in these meets, creating an atmosphere of excitement for our athletes - as well as an organizational challenge for the coaches and parents.

Athletes must register in advance via e-mail to our club manager (info@dvtfc.org) usually 2 weeks before the date of the meet.  E-mail reminders will be sent to all club members about upcoming Sectional / Invitational meets.  DVTFC pays all meet entry fees. 

DVTFC will always have one or two coaches in attendance at each meet.  They erect our team tent first thing in the morning, obtain the official registration packet and monitor our athletes’ performances.  Parents are responsible for transportation to and from meets, food and supplies for the day and shepherding athletes to events.  (Our coaches will provide as much guidance as possible, but they cannot be responsible for getting each and every athlete to the right place at the right time.)

 

CHAMPIONSHIP MEETS

Athletes who choose to remain for the championship portion of the season (beyond May 18) will compete in some larger sectional and invitational meets in May/June as well as the USATF Pacific Association Championships in mid-June.  They will also compete in a series of local and regional qualifying meets for the National Junior Olympics, to be held in Omaha, NE at the end of July 2008.  

There will be an additional fee for the championship season.
