Competition Details
Schedule:             The schedule is subject to minor adjustments. Please refer to the championship
                      webpage for all up-to-date information: https://athleticsontario.ca/event/2021-ontario-
                      u20-tf-champs/. A final schedule will be posted by July 21 at 4:00pm EST.

Cool Down:            Athletes will be asked to leave the facility upon the completion of their event. Cool
                      down routines must occur outside the facility to make room for the next group of
                      competing athletes.

Check-In Procedure:   The traditional Athletics Ontario check-in procedure will not be used at this
                      championship. A call room will be setup outside the field of play where athletes will
                      need to report to prior to entering the facility for their warm-up routine. A schedule for
                      entry into the facility will be distributed to athletes and coaches.

Implements:           Athlete must bring their own implement. Implements may be shared between athletes
                      from the same club. Absolutely no sharing of implements between athletes of different
                      clubs.

Awards:               Gold, Silver, and Bronze medals will be awarded to the first three finishers from Ontario
                      in each championship event.

                      Non-Ontario athletes will be eligible for medals. These non-Ontario athletes will not
                      offset medal placements for Ontario athletes (example: a non-Ontario athlete that
                      places second in an event will receive a silver medal. If third overall was an Ontario
                      athlete, they would also receive a silver medal as they were the second overall Ontario
                      athlete. The process continues until three Ontario athletes are awarded medals).

Spectators/Coaches:   If there is a 25-person limit during the championship, absolutely no coaches will be
                      allowed inside the facility.

                      provincial or state governing body will be able to register for a coaches pass.

                      If there is no longer a limit on event gatherings or if there is a higher limit, coaches will
                      still be able to register for a free coaches pass. Spectators will be able to access the
                      facility free of charge.

                      wear a mask until they begin their warmup or are competing. Upon the completion of
                      an event, an athlete must put their mask back on.
