End: 9:00 PM
Arrive no later than 4:45pm for warm-ups. Swimmers may choose two events. Order of events is IM, Free, Back, Breast, and Fly. In order to ensure a positive experience for all of our swimmers, if the coaches determine that a swimmer cannot technically and accurately perform the stroke and may, therefore, get disqualified, they will not swim the event at a B meet. The coaches will work with swimmers on their technique in practice. This prevents swimmers who are learning new strokes from the negative experience of disqualification until the swimmer is ready. Parking is limited -- Please do the following:

Warm-ups begin promptly at 5:25pm. Please arrive no later than 5:00pm. It is important to arrive on time for warm-ups! For this "B" Meet, swimmers are allowed to select two events. Swimmers are not allowed to age up and swim in a different age group at "B" Meets. The only exception would be any 6 and under legal in breaststroke and butterfly may swim with the 7-8 year olds so they are judged fairly for any potential disqualification. In order to ensure a positive experience for all of our swimmers, if the coaches determine that a swimmer cannot technically perform the stroke and may therefore get disqualified, they will remove the swimmer from the event until the swimmer is ready.
