Facility Information

 

All athletes and staff must enter through The Armory’s main entrance on Fort Washington Avenue. Athletes will not be admitted until ONE HOUR before the start of the event.

 

You will be denied entry if any of the following exists:

• You have experienced, or are currently experiencing, a fever, cough, or shortness of breath within the last 14 days.

• You have had close contact with an individual infected or suspected infection with COVID-19 within the last 14 days.

• You are traveling from a state that is on the NYS Travel Advisory (see below) within 14 days prior to the event.

 

Once you have passed the screening in the lobby, you should proceed to the fourth floor and sit in your assigned seats in the stands. Packets will be available for pickup on the way up to the fourth floor.

 

Everyone must wear a mask at all times inside the facility, except while actively competing!

 

Everyone must socially distance themselves and keep six (6) feet away from others inside the facility. 

 

All stairways and walkways will be unidirectional.  Please strictly adhere to signs.

 

Hand sanitizers are available throughout the facility.

 

Restrooms will be open for athletes.

 

Once you are done competing, please collect your belongings and leave the facility through the exit door by the shot put cage on the third floor as soon as possible. If you are competing in multiple events, you may go back to your assigned seat on the 4th floor.

Running Event Information

 

There will be no warming up inside The Armory. All warming up should take place across the street from The Armory entrance at the Haven pedestrian plaza or outside on the sidewalk. You may go back outside to warm up. Please have your bib on prior to going outside - that will be your ticket to get back in the building.

 

Clerking for all running events will be done on the apron outside the track along the first turn (underneath the Virginia C. Fields Scoreboard).

 

All athletes should not enter the clerking area until called for their event, about fifteen (15) minutes before their scheduled event. 

 

Because all events will be seeded prior to competition, every athlete must remember what heat and what lane they will be in. 

 

All running events will be FAT timed.

 

Starting blocks will be allowed and sanitized after each heat. No outside starting blocks will be allowed into the facility.

 

The 60m dash will be contested with an athlete in every third lane. 

 

Oval races will have athletes starting and finishing at different ends of the track. They will be seeded so that no one starting from the different starting lines should be passed while competing.

 

Competitors will enter the track at the start/finish line before the first turn on the track (near the timing booth) and go to their lanes at their respective starting line. Competitors will exit the track at the start/finish line before the second turn on the track (near the throwing cage). Once an athlete has completed their heat they will be required to place a face covering over their nose and mouth. 

 

Absolutely no spitting, nose blowing or other similar action will be permitted in any capacity including in or around garbage cans within the facility. 

New York State Travel Advisory

 

The NYS Department of Health has issued a travel advisory, in conjunction with Connecticut and New Jersey, to help stop the spread of COVID-19. If your state or territory is on this travel advisory list fourteen (14) days prior to the event, you will not be permitted to compete.
