Before, During, and After: What do I do?

Before the Meet...

What do I pack for a meet? warm clothes for morning, sunscreen, cap, goggles, extra towels, snacks/drinks, printed heat sheet & sharpies, cash for concession (sometimes Venmo is an option), camp chairs, tent for shade...*NO ALCOHOL*

Where do I find the heat sheet? Go to Events/SwimMeets, select event and look for attachments

FOR HOME MEETS ONLY: Families may set up on Friday evenings but ABSOLUTELY NO TENTS MAY BE SET UP BEFORE 7PM. Please note: Our Parent Board gets priority on tent setup…a small way to say thank you for all they do!

At The Meet...

What time should I be there? Arrive in time for warmups (check the event page for exact times...home team always warms up first). *Swimmers should check in with the coaches upon arrival.*

Where do we sit? Find our team's seating area (usually designated) and make friends. Space is limited to squeeze together!

How do I know when my swimmer swims? Find your swimmer on the heat sheet or athlete report and write their Event / Heat / Lane information on their hand/arm.

When do they head to the pool for their race? Watch the First Call / Last Call Display and listen to the announcer...get your swimmer to heating when their events are being called/displayed.

After The Meet...

Who gets ribbons? Top 8 swimmers in each event (all heats combined) receive a ribbon. (If a swimmer is disqualified in an event, no ribbon is awarded.)

Where do I find our ribbons? Check your family folders when they are set out during practices.

What is a fast pass? A fast pass is work $0.50 at home concessions and is awarded when a swimmer achieves a new personal best in an event.

What is All Stars? All Stars is a time based qualification that earns the swimmer an additional meet (July 19th) and a chance to swim against the top swimmers in the entire league. They also earn a gold team cap!
