State Tickets and Athlete Waiver

  Tickets

Fans are able to get ticket vouchers at https://gofan.co/app/school/UHSAA. Please select vouchers for the specific race you are attending to allow us for accurate contact tracing. Fans will need to present these vouchers at the venue entrance to gain access to the facility and to receive a wristband. All fans will be asked to leave the venue after the races and awards for their classification have concluded.

2. Student-Athlete Waiver Signature

All student-athletes who have been registered in the race will be responsible to have signed a waiver for Soldier Hollow Nordic Center at https://waiver.smartwaiver.com/w/58475c0e6a8f4/web/?auto_tag=FY18XCJRNATS. As a reminder, if your student-athletes or alternates competed at the Wasatch Meet, they do not need to fill out the waiver again. Also, all alternates who may reasonably compete at the 3A-5A-6A event will need to fill out this form.

3. Streaming

The race is scheduled to be streamed on KSL.com. Due to the amount of walking at the venue to reach viewing areas and the colder temperatures forecasted for Thursday, we would advise any populations who struggle with the elements to consider streaming the event if the conditions will have an adverse effect on them.

4. Non-Participants

Soldier Hollow has informed us that we can have 1000 people in the venue at all times, including participants, coaches, spectators and staff. This number is a reasonable number  Only IF teams restrict the numbers of non-participants they bring with them for this event. I am calling upon your school to please help with this potential issue in order to successfully complete the event.

 

Quite frankly, the risks of going over this limit of approx. 1000 people are high, as is the risk of not having all parties comply with the requirement of wearing masks in the venue. Failure to abide by these limits could lead to the event being recommended to be postponed or cancelled, which would be an absolute disservice to the individuals who have qualified for the competition.


If the meet is in danger, we will call an all-coaches meeting at the venue and ask you to kindly remove any non-participants and take them back to the bus. After that, we will remove spectators if necessary to allow the student-athletes to participate as scheduled. If we are unable to get cooperation, the meet/meets will be moved and rescheduled to another day and site to allow for completion. Thus, your cooperation is much appreciated as we try to fulfill our commitments to safety and completing the race while providing the best experience possible.


We must track all non-qualifiers by contact tracing. We are asking you as a school to cooperate by please having coaches provide a list of all non-participants, along with contact information for them, as they pick up team packets. This will allow us to provide detailed participant involvement to the Wasatch County Health Department. Again, use discretion in your school's decision to bring non-qualifiers. 

5. Team Arrival Information

Teams are encouraged to not show up any earlier than 1 hour before the start of their scheduled race time, in order to allow the UHSAA and Soldier Hollow staffs to clear participants from the previous session and to clean the restroom facilities. We will begin allowing teams into the facility approximately 1 hour before the start of your scheduled race times.
