GENERAL INFORMATION
Listed below are the dates, starting times, sites and meet directors of each of the regional track
 GENERAL
meets  for girlsINFORMATION
                 and boys in each class.

District meet directors shall email any known scratches and/or relays alternate changes to the
regional meet director by the end of their meet and upload their meet results on
La.MileSplit.com prior to 10:00 p.m. on Saturday April 23rd. The MileSplit platform shall be
utilized for results and advancement of qualifying athletes only. All scratches and new relay
alternates will be handled by the regional meet director or their respective meet timer outside
of the MileSplit platform. It is very important that the regional directors have the results from
the district meet uploaded to MileSplit by the deadline and all known scratches and new relay
alternates emailed to them at the conclusion of the district meets so they will have sufficient
time to set up the regional meet. All other scratches shall be reported to the regional meet
director no later than 12 p.m. two days prior to the regional meet. See rule 23.5.8 on page 6.

All District, Regional and State Track meets will be conducted according to the National
Federation Edition of Track and Field Rules, 2022, and Section 23 Track Rules of the LHSAA
Handbook.

All Class C schools shall have their entries completed in the MileSplit platform by Friday, April
15, 2022, in order for the regional directors to set up their meet. There will not be any district
meets in Class C to qualify for the regional track meets. Each school may enter two (2)
individuals and (1) relay team in each event at the regional meet. Each region will qualify three
(3) individuals and (3) relay teams to the State Meet in each event. (In events where there are
not 9 qualifiers to the state meet, the state meet director may advance the athlete(s) with the
next best time(s) or mark(s) from any of the three regionals meets.)

NOTE: In relay events, up to six individuals may be listed for each relay in the District, Regional
and State meets. Any substitutions for the regional and state meets shall only come from those
names listed on the relay cards that were presented to the meet director by the end of the
District and Regional meets. Relay alternates shall remain the same in MileSplit if a coach fails
to provide an updated relay card to the meet director by the end of the District and/or Regional
meet.

23.5.16 Qualifying Plans and Special Rules for Regional Meets (All Classes - Boys and Girls)
4. Timing Device: Shall be fully automatic timing device (FAT), if available. Semi-automatic

all field events.

23.6.6 Prior to the state meet, the LHSAA shall place a state meet memorandum on its
website and notify all schools when available. Each head track coach shall be notified by
email as to when the heat sheets are available. Once notified the participating schools shall
have four hours to review, appeal, or dispute the school’s heat sheets which are posted on
the LHSAA website. The only changes that will be considered at this time shall be errors in
reporting/posting by the Regional Meet Director or the LHSAA administration.
Omissions/errors by the participating schools are not appealable or disputable.

23.5.8   1. There will be no scratch meeting for the Regional meet. Schools that qualify
            contestants from the district meet to the regional meet shall declare by 12:00 noon
            two (2) days prior to the regional meet any scratches for those qualifying to
            the regional meet. It will be the responsibility of the school that scratches a
            contestant to notify the alternate school qualifier by 12:00 noon two (2) days prior to
            the regional meet. Schools failing to scratch contestants prior to 12:00 noon two (2)
            days prior to the regional meet shall be fined $50 per contestant unless a letter from
            a doctor or the principal stipulates that the contestant was unable to compete due
            to medical reasons or other unusual circumstances. Scratches to the regional meet
            shall be faxed or emailed to the host school on school letterhead signed by the head
            coach.
         2. Team packets containing heat sheets, time schedule, meet information, appeal
            form, etc., may be picked up at the host school two hours prior to your school

         4. If a school enters no more than two contestants in the meet, the student(s) may be
            accompanied by a faculty coach/representative, or an LHSAA-approved non-faculty
            coach from any other school/school system entered in the meet, if both schools’
            principals give written permission. The written permission shall be presented to the
            meet director at the packet pick-up area.
         5. If a qualifying contestant from the district meet is scratched and the alternate is not
            notified by 12:00 noon two (2) days prior to the meet, there shall be no replacement
            allowed.

 SUBSTITUTIONS ON RELAY TEAMS
 23.5.9 A coach may substitute a contestant to participate with his/her relay team if the
        contestant’s name is listed on the relay entry form provided to the regional meet
        director by the respective district meet directors at the conclusion of the district meet,
        and if the substitute’s participation limit of four events (including relays) is not
        exceeded.
