shall be cancelled with the heats run at the HEAT TIME.

For events with two or more rounds, invitation athletes can only make up 50% of the final field,
therefore a maximum of four invitation athletes can progress through to the 100m final. This also
applies to the additional three attempts in relevant field events; only four invitation athletes can
progress through to the additional throws/jumps round. If there is not enough Victorian registered
athletes to fill 50% of the final, additional invitation athletes will be progressed
PRESENTATIONS:
Presentations for the first, second and third Victorian school athletes will be conducted as soon as
possible after the final for each event. As we have some athletes from interstate/national if those
athletes finish before the top 3 Victorian athletes they will receive and invitational medal.
AWD athletes will receive medals in the U16 age group and the U18 age group. First, second and
third will be determined by using the classification table supplied from Athletics Australia.
