UPDATED Arcadia Invitational Entries & Alternates
School-by-school listing of acceptances!
Dear Coaches,
Thank you for selecting the 2009 Arcadia Invitational for your finest athletes. More than 600 high school from 24 states
and three foreign nations have requested entry into this year's meet. Selections have been finalized and the fields
are loaded once again. Twenty-five current national leaders are entered into this year's two-day extravaganza along
with every single current Californa state leader.
Linked below are the school-by-school UPDATED entries as of 1 a.m. on Thursday, April 9th, 2009.
Before viewing those entries, please be aware of the following very important notes below:
SCRATCHES: If you are the head coach and wish to scratch an athlete from any particular event, please EMAIL meet
director Rich Gonzalez as soon as possible at ArcadiaInvite@aol.com If you make the scratch by Tuesday, April 7th at
noon PST, you will not be charged for this entry on the team entry fee. Any scratches not made by this time will still
appear on the team fee and will be due at packet pick-up on the day of the meet.
ALTERNATES: If your athlete has the word “ALT” listed next to an event, the athlete is an alternate for that event. If a
scratch occurs in an event in the next few days, an alternate will be moved in to the vacated lane and the coach will be
notified via email or phone call (don’t call us – we’ll call you). These alternates are encouraged to attend with the team
and in team uniform in case there are scratches on the day of the meet. Fees will not be charged for alternates unless
they compete; if they compete, the school will be billed after the meet.
HEAT SHEETS: Will be posted on Thursday morning, April 9th at the meet website.
ENTRY FEES: The entry fee for participating in the Saturday night “invitational” session is $15 per individual event and
$60 per relay event. The entry fee for participating in the “invitational” heat of a Friday Night Relay event also is $60 per
relay. Cost for any other relay during the weekend is $48 and for any other individual event during the weekend is $12.
There is a maximum school fee of $200 per gender. No school will pay more than $400, regardless of how many qualify.
Most schools will pay much less. If you are unsure of your team entry fee, you can contact the meet hotline for this
information at (626) 445-7507.
FINAL INSTRUCTIONS: An info packet with key information about meet weekend is linked here. Please be sure to
download and read this information carefully.
We look forward to seeing you at the meet!
Rich Gonzalez
