LESD feels strongly there is a lot of growth and opportunity for our swimmer(s) from meets. Our meet schedule is created with input from all of our coaching staff and is a process that will vary appropriately for each swim practice group. To enter our meets, there will be an email communication sent to the swimmers that qualify for the meet with instructions on how to submit your entry via your LESD account in Team Unify.
2020-21 SHORT COURSE FULL MEET SCHEDULE
Individual meet information and signup deadlines will be available on the website closer to meet dates. Almost all meets will require a time standard to qualify and the specifics will be included in each meet information. Stay tuned as additional meets may be added to the schedule.
The Coaching Staff will be rolling out different championship competition tracks based on your swimmers progress. This will continue to foster team bonding, gear your swimmers towards the best meets for their talent/age, and give a progression to their competition schedule. Meets not on the team schedule must be cleared with your coach prior to signing up. Stay tuned for more from your primary coaches.
Under Entry Process, there are two options: Swimmer and Coach submission. For the Swimmer Submission meets, swimmers will get to choose their events. For the Coach Submission meets, the coaches will choose the events for the swimmers. Swimmers must still ‘commit’ to going to the meets where coaches will be choosing events for the swimmers. Swimmers that have not committed to a meet will not be assigned events for meets where coaches are choosing events.
2018 - 19 SHORT COURSE MEET SCHEDULE
The 2018-19 Team Registration must be completed for your swimmer(s) prior to entering meets.
