ENTRY TO FACILITY: All participants and coaches must enter and exit via the front entrance doors. We have been asked to ensure that no side doors to the facility are being used to enter/exit and are not being propped open!

TENTS: we encourage teams to consider bringing outside tents to set up to declutter the deck space of bodies between events. There is enough deck space for all attending if not. There is a grassy area east of the pool (next to the parking lot) where these can be set up

SPECTATORS: No spectators will be allowed in the facility during prelims (due to capacity limits of the facility). There is space for a limited number of spectators during the distance session and finals. There will be a designated spectator area beside the pool where all non-participants are expected to remain. As a courtesy to others, we ask spectators to rotate in/out of the facility once they have watched their child’s event

VOLUNTEERS: we may need volunteers for the meet especially for the Friday morning session. Anyone wanting to volunteer can check in at the volunteer sign in desk in the front lobby during the beginning of the warm up to see if positions are needed (a way to watch the whole meet)

WARM UP:

• Warm up sessions will be blocked for prelims only. 8 lanes available.
• VPSC Group A Lane 4

WARM DOWN:

• Warm down periods of 10 minutes each have been scheduled during each session. Please see session report to know when these are.

SEATING: ALL SWIMMERS AND COACHES are encouraged to bring their own chairs as there is only seats available for volunteers and officials.

PRIZE MONEY: Scoring will be awarded points for top 8 places 10,8,6,5,4,3,2,1. Cash prizes ($80, $50, $20) for each age group and gender will be awarded based on the cumulative total of the swimmers’ five highest point events. Cheques will be mailed to teams after the meet.
