The results are up on the results page.

Once again we were blessed with two great days of weather.

Thanks to all the folks from out of town that travelled to the meet.

A big thank you to all the folks that volunteered their time and energy to put on the meet.

See you at the meet next year or maybe sooner at the Jack Brow meet in Kelowna, the JD meet in Kamloops or the Jamboree in Abbotsford.

A number of Prince George track athletes competed at the provincial high school meet this past weekend.  Here are the results.  As you can see there were some significant personal bests at the meet.

BC High School Results

Here is the meet package.  The main meet will be June 11 & 12.  On Friday evening before the meet we will have a track rascal mini meet so there will be no events for the track rascals in the Spruce Capital meet.

The meet events file is now posted below.

Updated: MONDAY JUNE 6TH.  The new schedule reflects a change in 60m sprint for 9-11 year olds, and removal of the triple jump for 12 and under age groups as per the new event changes.

The results are now up on the results page.

Here is the information for the meet.  You will need to do your entries using the hytek team manager software.  If you used it last year you do not need to download the team manager lite software again.  Just download and import the hytek “meet events”  file posted here.  Most of your athletes will already be in your database you only need to add new athletes.  When you are done, email your entry file back to me and I will send you a confirmation.  Don’t worry about sending in what you think is the absolute final version of your entries.  Once you have a pretty good idea of your athletes and their events send that.   Deletions/changes are very easy.  Late entries are a real problem.
