Hello Pacific Association Cross Country Coaches, Parents & Athletes,
The Pacific Association Youth Committee invites all youth athletes to participate in the 2024 Bob Shor Youth Cross Country Grand Prix. Each youth division will have a separate Grand Prix competition.
CLICK HERE for the USATF Youth Age Division information page. Athletes will earn points for each top ten finish in competitions included in the Grand Prix series. Ten points will be awarded for first place, nine points for second, eight points for third, down to one point awarded for a tenth place finish.
Athletes not registered for the Grand Prix will NOT displace Grand Prix athletes in the standings. The top 10 grand prix finishers will be awarded points, regardless of overall place. If there are 3 Grand Prix meets, points from all 3 meets will be added. For 4 Grand Prix meets, the top scores from 3 out of the 4 meets will be used. For 5 Grand Prix meets, the top scores from 4 out of the 5 meets will be used. For 6 or more Grand Prix meets, the top scores for 5 out of the total meets will be used. If an athletes competes in all meets, their top score will be used to calculate their final standings.
Registration is required for participation in the Pacific Association Youth Cross Country Grand Prix. Registration is free, however a valid 2024 USATF Pacific membership is required.
