Signing up for a Swim
Meet
Participation in meets is completely voluntary.
The team competes in 2 types of meets – multi-team meets and
dual meets.
- Multi-team meets are
generally more competitive and events are spread over a
weekend.
- Dual meets are lower key and
usually take part in the evening mid week.
The meet schedule details all
the meets the team will be participating in during the
season. It also indicates which practice groups are eligible
to participate in which meets.
To sign-up for a meet click on "Attend ths event" next to the event
name.
With effect from 4/13/2009, swimmers will be
given the ability to choose their own events. Note: The
coaches have the right to override a swimmers decisions should they
feel it appropriate.
Specific meet information - warm-up & start times, swimmer
entries, and directions - can be found by clicking on the meet
name.
There will be times when a swimmer cannot attend a meet they have
signed up for due to illness or conflicting commitments - please
let the coaches know so that they know who to expect on the
day.
Meet
Fees
Meet fees are payable per event swum at
‘away’ meets. The deadline for entries is normally
about a month before the meet and NASA pays fees to the host club
when the entries are submitted. We cannot get refunds on fees
submitted.
To cancel your sign-up for a
particular meet:
- before the close date - click
on "Attend this Event" and decommit the appropriate
swimmer.
- after the close date - let
the coaches know by email (you will still be charged as the fees
will already have been paid over to the host club)
NASA meets fee charges are as
follows:
$5 / individual event entered - there is no charge for
relay
In addition, Illinois Swimming
charges a a $2 fee for each athlete that competes in a
meet.
There are no fees for dual
meets.
