Welcome to our guide on merged teams and mixed competition! Here, we'll clarify the processes and rules surrounding these topics to ensure a smooth experience for everyone involved. Let's dive in!

When it comes to merged teams, only the host school is responsible for submitting the merged team data. This helps streamline the process and ensures that all information is accurately reported.

If both schools involved in the merger receive notifications, we recommend reaching out to your state association for further assistance. They will be able to provide guidance and support as needed.

In the realm of mixed competition, it's essential to understand that some states do not recognize co-ed teams. This means that reporting requirements may vary by location.

When reporting, please ensure that boys' and girls' teams are listed separately, even if they are competing together in events such as track. This distinction is crucial for maintaining accurate records and adhering to state regulations.

If an athlete is competing under mixed competition approval, be sure to list them with the team they are competing on. This helps keep everything organized and ensures that all athletes are accounted for correctly.

Thank you for taking the time to familiarize yourself with these guidelines! If you have any questions or need further clarification, don't hesitate to reach out to your state association or our Support Team at support@finalforms.com.
