The general schedule will be 4 days a week from 7-9:00pm at Farmington High School. Events will be on a rotating schedule. There are a few exceptions so please refer to the online schedule (https://www.magsigpallettthrowing.club/schedule-1). Please remember to use the RSVP feature so that I know when you are planning to attend. Thanks.

·         Tues (discus/hammer)

Track Meets:

I’ve started to add track meets to the schedule as well. There are still a few unknowns but in general the schedule is starting to firm up. Under “Files” you can find a Word document titled “MPTC Flyer – 2024 Season” that includes a list of known meets (black lettering). I’ve highlighted those that we will likely attend. To make things easier, I’ve listed the meets I will likely attend below (some of them, I’ll be throwing at as well)!  

** Please note that very few of these meets will include javelin and hammer. If you are a non-turbo javelin thrower (age 13+), make every effort to attend one or more of those meets that contend it before the AAU Region 12 meet.
