OTTAWA HP WEEKEND Friday & Saturday June 4th-5th, 2021 - Friday & Saturday June 4th-5th, 2021
TENTATIVE SCHEDULE:
The schedule shown below illustrates the time line of events in the 4 areas of the Terry Fox
Athletic Facility.
Athletes will only be permitted into the respective areas (columns) at the time scheduled.
Track athletes will be permitted to enter the North Field to conduct (continue) their warm-ups
in the North Field before being marshalled down to the oval (bring all gear with you). Once
down in the main stadium, athletes will receive 15min to complete their warm-up before the
gun slot (example – Women 400mH enter the main stadium at 4:30pm, the gun will go off at
4:45pm). This allows athletes 15min of prep on the track and time to exit the venue after. This
is a total of 1hr in the facility. Warm ups and cool downs can be conducted outside the venue.
Field athletes will be able to go directly to their event area for a max 75min of warm-up.

VENUE LAYOUT:
Below are two images of the Terry Fox Athletic Facility.
The City of Ottawa has very strict guidelines implemented for the facility, including capacity
limits and the avoidance of crossing into different areas and creating one way flow of traffic
between areas.
Officials and volunteers will direct the flow of traffic and let athletes know when they can enter the appropriate
area.
Athletes will enter the facility at the North Field (gate facing Riverside Drive). Consider the Warm-up Area as a large
ACC prior to moving to your respective competitive area.

COMPETITON AREAS:

EMERGENCY ACTION PLAN:
There will be a First Aid Team locted on site for the duration of the weekend. The First-Aid station will be located just
east of the grand stands. This team is not responsible for RMT or PT but a first response in case of injury or need to
call EMS.

A defibrillator is located in the main building of the Terry Fox Athletic Facility.

If EMS is required at the Terry Fox Athletic Facility, the address is 2960 Riverside Dr. Ottawa Ontario K1V 8N4 (Inside
Mooneys Bay Park). The best point of access is from the intersection of Riverside Dr. and Ridgewood Avenue, they
should take an immediate right once inside Mooneys Bay Park. An alternative point of entry would be arriving from
Hogs Back Rd, turning into the Mooneys Bay Boat launch entrance and pulling up to the West Field.

Under a sever weather warning or arrival of a thunder/lightning storm there are very few locations for shelter. While
there are a few change rooms and locations for shelter, they will be limited in space as a 2m physical distancing
rule will apply while indoors (alogn with wearing masks). We ask that athletes, officials and volunteers who drive to
the vanue take shelter in their respective vehicles until the storm subsides. Please do not welcome others you did
not travel with into your vehicle.
