Overlapping/Conflict between events: If an athlete has a Track Event (i.e. 100m) and a Field Event (i.e. High Jump) at the same time, the athlete should do the following: 

• Check in with the field event and tell the event manager that they currently have a track event but will return to the field event after the track event 
• The athlete competes in the track event 
• The athlete then returns to the field event 
• The field event manager will do their best to allow the athlete the appropriate number of throws or jumps, but time may limit this.  It is also possible that the Field Event may finish while the athlete is away
