CIF Field Events
The following field events are contested at the same time as the running events. The order of the events is at the discretion of the meet manager, but general guidelines are usually followed. At some meets, events are contested at the same time (ie. girls long jump / boys triple jump). If you are entered into both a field event and a track event, you must check in at both and let the meet managers / officials know that you must leave to run a race / take a jump / take a throw. You are given a short time limit in which you must return. Experience, and paying careful attention to the pace of the meet, will get you to the right place at the right time.
