Swim Meet 101
How to prepare for a swim meet.
- Indicate Attendance in Swimtopia by NOON the day before the Meet. If your swimmer's attendance has not been declared, they will not be signed up to swim any events.
- Please make sure your swimmer stays hydrated. Summer meets get very hot.
- Please make sure your swimmer has had a sufficient meal/snack prior.
- Double check swim bag for googles, cap, towel and extra clothes.
- It is always a good idea to have spare googles. Googles easily get lost, mixed up and broken.
SWIM MEET TIPS
- Come on time to the meet. Please arrive 15 minutes prior to the indicated Warm-Up time. Please check calendar for times.
- With a Sharpie, write EVENTS (E), HEAT (H) and LANE (L) on swimmers arm. For example if your swimmer is swimming 25 Free in Event 3 Heat 1 Lane 4 their arm should look something like this 25FR E3 H1 L4. This helps the swimmer, coaches and ready bench volunteers to quick know what your child is swimming.
- The day of the meet, review what events your child will be swimming.
- Review meet CHECK LIST
