2020 NJCAA ALTITUDE ADJUSTMENT POLICY
To more accurately determine the altitude adjustments for the 2020 NJCAA standards for both Indoor and Outdoor Divisions I & III, refer to the NCAA
Track & Field Rulebook, Division I. (Adjustments will be made automatically by Direct Athletics)
The time allowance for altitude (in seconds) is in parentheses for the selected sites, events, and divisions. Please use the NCAA Rulebook as to the
proper use of the allowance when adjusting the 2020 NJCAA Standards. This procedure allows us to use 2020 adjustments provided by the NCAA and
to be more accurate.
B. Outdoor Track & Field Standards
Hand times will be entered as HT into Direct Athletics which will convert to FAT.
Division I men and women and Division III men and women pole vault progression 15 cm for the first 3 heights and 10 cm
