48 Hours Left to Register

Register now to ensure your entry for North America's Premier Indoor High School Track and Field Event.

Registration closes Sunday, Feb. 14th at midnight

Double check your entry. Entries finalized and sent to Paypal cannot be changed online. Call 208-235-5604 with corrections - but NO marks changes, please.

Last Minute Reminder: After registration is closed on Monday, Feb. 15th, the heating and seeding for all running events will begin.  When that is completed, the entries in ALL events will be posted on our website by late Tuesday or early Wednesday.  Watch for the posting and double check your entries.  Errors have already surfaced - girl in the boys' races, 400m times entered in the 800m, etc. The sooner a mistake is found, the greater chance it can be corrected and the athlete entered in the correct event.  If mistakes are found at check-in, a lane might not be available and athletes will miss competing.  Call 208-235-5604 with corrections - but NO marks changes.

Review the Event Rules on our website regarding footwear, blocks, lapped runners, lane cut lines, advancement to finals, etc.  No spikes are allowed in Thursday's or Friday's preliminary running events; spikes of ¼” are allowed for all field events (excluding shot put).

HAVING PROBLEMS WITH REGISTRATION?
Online registration will be turned off at midnight on Feb 14th, but we will make every effort to be sure all interested athletes are registered. Our offices will not be staffed on Sunday.  If you attempt to register but have difficulties, call 208-235-5604 leaving a message with your name and a phone number where you can be reached on Monday morning, February 15th.  We will return all calls before heating and seeding. Remember, President's Day is Monday, Feb. 15th, so please leave a message where you can be contacted during the holiday.
