Meet Procedures & Format:
- Swimmers may swim four (4) individual events per day with an eight (8) event total for the meet.
- All events are timed finals; events 200 & shorter will be pre-seeded.
- Swimmers must circle-in and provide their own timers/counter for 500 freestyle.
- Athletes should speak to their coach before and after each race, as well as before leaving any session of the meet.
- Relays will be swum in the middle of each session on Sat & Sun. Coaches will determine the best possible relay. Please keep in mind that those with an AG Champs QT cannot swim that stroke/distance the relay offered (11-14 only)
- Important Links: TBA
Athlete/Family Information:
- Be on-time or early for warm-up! This is essential to not “rush” and feel overwhelmed upon arrival.
- Much like your coaches, the weather will be cooler than usual this weekend. Please pack warmer clothes, socks, and shoes. Staying dry and warm between races will help maintain good energy levels.
- Bring dryland clothes and shoes for dynamic warm-up prior to each session – “warm-up to swim, not swim to warm-up”. Several athletes show up in sandals, crocs, and other non-athletic attire, which defeats the purpose of dynamic warm-up.
- Bring plenty of healthy snacks & fluids to stay fueled & hydrated.
- Tag/Add @riceaquatics on social media posts (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram) – Please post responsibly.
