The first of three 2019 Ultra Throw hosted events for adults will take place on Sunday, April 28 at McLeod Athletic Park, Langley, BC. a day after our Junior Development Festival (ages 9 - 13) on Saturday, April 27.
BC Athletics registered Senior athletes (ages 20 – 34) and Masters athletes (ages 35 and up) are invited to compete in the 2019 Ultra Throws Festival #1 in Hammer, Shot Put, Discus, Javelin, Weight, and Super Weight. Athletes are guaranteed 6 throws per event.
PLUS the Throws Triathlon (Shot Put/Discus/Javelin) and the Throws Pentathlon (Hammer/Shot Put/Discus/Javelin/Weight).
NOTE: The first 3 attempts in each event are the ones used to determine the scores in the Throws Triathlon and the Throws Pentathlon. Where an individual is registered for both the Throws Triathlon and the Throws Pentathlon, the first 3 attempts are scored for the Pentathlon and the last 3 attempts are scored for the Triathlon.
Cost to enter: 1st event = $12; 2nd event = $10; 3rd event = $8; 4th event & up = $6 each

OFFICIAL EVENT SCHEDULE:
We run a floating schedule; events may run ahead of schedule and athletes should be prepared to compete in their next event 45 minutes ahead of the scheduled start time.
Selection to Flight 1 or 2 will be done after entries are closed. Flight lists will be available on Ultra Throw website (ultrathrow.com) on Saturday, April 27th, 2019.
(Participants will be divided up into the two flights – all individual events will be included in these flights – so if all you are doing is the discus and you are in flight 1, event time is 11:45 am.)
NOTE: If registration is less than 12 for an event, we will run only one flight.
