FORMAT
The meet will be swum as
timed finals. Each session will be seeded
by computer based on positive check-in at the beginning of each session. Coaches will receive a positive check-in
sheet before each session, which must be returned no later than 30 minutes
before the beginning of the session.
Heat sheets will be posted around the pool deck. Copies of heat and lane assignments will be given to
coaches. Swimmers should report directly to the blocks for their events. Coaches are responsible for ensuring their
swimmers are in the correct heat and lane.
There will be no bullpen.
All heats of the 1650 will be
swum fastest to slowest, alternating girls and boys. Girls and boys may be combined if that
requires fewer heats. 15-19 year old
swimmers and 13-14 year old swimmers will be combined into heats for efficiency
if deemed necessary by meet management, but will be scored separately.
RELAYS
Swimmers must be entered in
an individual event to be able to participate in a relay. Relay only swimmers are not allowed. Relays are age specific. Swimmers may not age up for a relay. Relay entries may be limited to two teams per
