[NCNCA] Racing at the trtack this week

[Kevin Worley]

     There won't be racing on Wednesday night this week, and as of today, no Friday Night racing either. Both programs will return to their regular schedules next week.
     There will be a Sprint Tournament on Saturday, the 7th. Like last month, warm-up and registration starts at 12 noon with racing starting at 1pm.
     Last month we put folks into groups of similar 200 meter times so that everyone would be racing at similar speed levels. This month we're going to go back to a tournament format. With Masters States, the Keefe Realty AVC, and Elite Natz Qualifier coming up, practicing a tournament format is important, so that's the plan this time around.
     Everyone will make the first round and be seeded according to 200m time. There won't be any reps, but those who don't make it through each round will go into a round robin format, and continue racing each other in two and three ups. The main tournament will remain a two up competition.
    The sprint day in August has been moved back two weeks to Saturday, 8/4, so that folks prepping for Elite Natz Qualifier will have another day of practice.
     So, come on down to the beautiful new Hellyer Park Velodrome and sprint, sprint, sprint.
