Advancement to Provincials: Students attempting to qualify for the Provincial Championships must compete in the following events with two registration options: · Shot put · Standing long jump · 50m · 100m · 200m 1. 50m, shot put, long jump. Athletes with limited mobility are invited to register for this option. 2. 100m, 200m, shot put, long jump. Athletes of medium and high ability levels are invited to register for this option. Athletes of similar ability levels will be placed in divisions prior to the regional qualifier based on the results from the skills assessment test each educator must complete and submit 7 days prior to competition. Athletes will be awarded points based on their placement within an event as follows: 1st Place-10 2nd Place-8 3rd Place-6 4th Place-4 5th Place-2 6-8th Place-0 Do not Start / Finish = 0 pts Disqualification = 0 pts Athletes’ scores in each of their events will be totalled and accumulated points will be divided by the number of events the athlete is entered into, establishing an average point score for the athlete. Each regional qualifier will be given a qualifying athlete quota depending on the total number of participants at the meet. Once athlete quotas have been determined by the Four Corners team, athletes with the highest ranked cumulative score will become the candidates for primary consideration in advancing to Provincial Games. Athletes are qualified pending final endorsement from the Four Corners team and educators at the qualified school. In the event of a tie, the following criteria will be used: a. Most first place finishes at the Regional Qualifier b. Most second place finishes at the Regional Qualifier c. Most third place finishes at the Regional Qualifier
