Southern Section summer dead period announcement
You can check out the following at this LINK:
"Southern Section Action Item 1) Summer Dead Period - A proposal regarding changing the Summer Dead Period was defeated last April by the Southern Section Council. Based on feedback from the previous vote, the proposal to reduce the Summer Dead Period from 21 consecutive days to 14 consecutive days has returned with some modifications: the dates for the Summer Dead Period will be chosen by member schools, the Summer Dead Period must be the same for all sports at the high school and the 14-day consecutive day dead period must not include school days in the Spring or Fall."
The Los Angeles Times writer Eric Sondheimer posted about this on his Twitter account which you can check out HERE and take note of the replies to his post.

Dublin CA Winter Championships Qualifier
- Please be sure to arrive early to avoid long lines and wait times. We will start the meet on time and roll through the schedule regardless of the registration area lines.
- Individual Sign Up Online Form - Please have your athletes fill this out by the Thursday, January 30, 2020 9:00 PM deadline. This will allow them to get their bib number immediately on Saturday upon arrival. They will NOT have to wait in line in the registration area, which will save them a lot of time and stress.
- Individual Sign Up Paper Sheet - If they are unable to fill out the Online Form, they will need to have this sheet filled out in order to register. If they could have this filled out before arrival, that will save them SOME time but they will still have to wait in line in the registration area to get a bib number. You do not need to fill out the "Event" or "Mark" space.
- Relay Sign Up Sheet - This will act as your "relay card". You will need to print this, have it filled out, and provide it at CHECK-IN in order to run in the relay. You do not need to fill out the "Mark" space.
- $12 unlimited entry for athletes, $5 for spectators, and a $25 ADDITIONAL FEE for all qualifying athletes that wish to compete in the CA Track & Field Winter Championship Finals at Arcadia High School on Saturday, February 8, 2020. This MUST be paid before you leave the meet on Saturday. Please read more about this at http://www.
