Meet Entries Policy for Pacific Swim
Regarding meet entries, please adhere to the following principles:  If you have two B times, you many enter an A/B meet and swim those two events.  You may enter TWO additional or “bonus” swims at that meet, if they are within 20% of the qualifying times.  If you are way off of a B time, the meet entry system will deny the entry. Swimmers entering a C meet MAY NOT swim events in which they already have a “B” time. All Senior Meets, and meets such as Junior Olympics, are time qualifying only meets.  Once you have submitted your meet entry request, the fees for entering the meet are automatically deducted.  We cannot issue a refund after you have submitted the meet entry for any reason.

Meet entries are due to PS on a Monday, and we urge you to then verify your swimmers meet entries on Tuesday, when they are available for review.  The pre-entry report is only posted for a 24hr period then all entries become final unless a request to change a swimmers entry is received by no later than 8:00am Wednesdays.   Any request for changes should be sent to gary@pacificswim.com This way, we can catch any errors and hopefully make corrections
