USATF JUNIOR OLYMPIC REGIONAL MEET REGISTRATION
Paying for your athlete(s) entry fee will replace our typical registration form. Within the payment checkout you will fill out a form indicating the information we usually ask for in registration. You must pay the entry fee before your athlete is registered. There is an $16 entry fee for the Regional meet.
A reminder that chip timing will be used at the Regional meet. All athletes need to return their chip to the Bowerman Track Club Tent and a BTC Coach prior to leaving. All chips not returned are subject to paying the $10 penalty.

NOTE ABOUT QUALIFICATION:
Note, only those who ran the state meet this weekend are eligible to run at regionals. In order to qualify for regionals you need to be in the top 35 individually or one of the top 5 teams. Each team that we qualified can have up to 8 people on it. In some age groups we qualified 1-3 teams which means our top 8, 16 or 24 BTC finishers are qualified as part of those teams. I does not matter which BTC team you were registered under for the state meet. If we qualified a team and you were in the top 8 BTC finishers, you have first rights to the team spot.
Step 1: Check Qualifiers List - BOYS LIST / GIRLS LIST
On the Qualifiers List, all names highlighted in GREEN are currently qualified for regionals individually or part of a team. All names not highlighted are not currently qualified, but will be offered a spot on the team in the order they appear if anyone qualified declines their spot at regionals.
STEP 2: Declare Yes or No for Regionals - CLICK HERE
Enter your name and yes or no declaring your plans to attend regionals. As everyone declares, we will update the qualifiers list (may have a couple hours delay in updating once you declare). If you are someone on the waitlist, you can get an idea of your chances of getting bumped up as people in front of you declare. If you have multiple children, fill out the declaration for each of them.
STEP 3: Regional Registration Payment (above)
