Check in and Warm Ups:

All swimmers should check in 15 minutes prior to their warm up time.

Swim meets on Saturdays officially start at 8:00AM. If we’re hosting at Dearbought, swimmers will warm‐up from 7–7:30 AM. If the meet is away, warm‐ups are from 7:30‐7:55AM‐Saturdays.  Dual meets generally last 3‐4 hours.

Meet tips:

• Families and swimmers should stay in the team’s designated area. This makes it easier for the Clerk of Course to find a swimmer when it is time for him or her to line up for an event.
• Swimmers should remain in the pool until all the swimmers in their heat complete the race.
• Many parent volunteers are required at each meet, every week! Please respect the need for volunteers and help routinely.
• Concessions are available for sale at every meet.

What to bring to a meet:

• Swim suit, cap and goggles
• Two or more towels
• Warm clothing (especially for the cool mornings)
• Something to pass the time between events (e.g., cards, a book)
• Water bottles to stay hydrated
• Sunscreen/hats
• Folding chairs
• Pop-Up Tent
