New event: 1500 meter run for 7-8 year olds!

Welcome to the 6th Annual Subbantam Championships Track and Field Meet of the Pacific Association.  For this year subbantams are athletes born 2001 and later.  The Youth Committee team members, family and friends, are hosting this meet again.  Yes, we’re still doing it; and with your help and support we will continue for years to come.  To make this work, your volunteer services are still much needed and greatly appreciated.  We want another successful Subbantam Championships meet this year, so again, let’s make it happen!! 

Athletes must be capable of contesting their event efficiently.  We cannot allow exceptionally young children to participate in the longer races and most of the field events.  Therefore, adjustments have been made for most of the meet events.  The adjustments are noted next to the particular event below.  Please adhere to these when making your athlete entries. 

We’re offering the high jump for our 7 and 8 year olds only.  The shot put will be 4 pounds for this track meet instead of the regulation 6 pounds used for the bantam age group.  The mini jav is also being offered again so coaches, it is imperative that you train your subbantams in these three field event areas if you are going to have them contest the events!  We want no unnecessary accidents.  

Our preference is pre-registration via email to [email protected]   However, if you are using the postal snail mail system, please pre-register with a postmark date of no later than Friday, June 12, 2009.  If you have any questions do not hesitate to contact Joanne Slaton-Camargo at [email protected] or call  (510) 879-8642, (510) 632-8004 OR Maria Castillo at (707) 648-3423 or pa.youth_officialschair@yahoo.com. 

USATF regulations allow three (3) events per athlete.  Please adhere to those guidelines.   

Awards for this track meet are medals 1-3 and ribbons 4-8 in each heat or flight.  The outstanding male and female athlete of the day will be presented with a trophy at the end of the track meet.  Each athlete will also receive a subbantam track meet t-shirt at the start of the track meet.
