Meet Information
 
If possible, we would like all swimmers to attend at least 1 day of each meet. Meets help reinforce what is taught at practice by having them put the skills to practice. If you have questions about the meet please ask.
 
The BSW C/B/BB+ Meet is 9/30-10/1

The Intersquad Meet is 10/14. This will be a "mini-meet" for the swimmers. Be on the look-out for information regarding this meet via email.
  
The SRVA C/B/BB+ Meet is 10/28-29. This meet is for all swimmers in our group. Information about this meet coming soon to a pool near you!
 

If your swimmer(s) do not have a time for an event, please refer to the Age Group Time Standards. From there, you will use the 'B' time standard + 5 seconds when entering a time. The reason for this is some meets will not let you enter a 'NT'. This is only for meets that do not require a qualifying time to enter.

Estimating an Entry Time - These are rough estimates on the slow side.  It is always better to be entered too slow than to be entered too fast.

Estimating a 25-yard entry time:

  • Enter the B time plus 5 seconds.

Estimating a 50-yard entry time:

  • Double your 25-yard time for that stroke and add 10 seconds.
  • Enter the B time plus 5 seconds.

Estimating a 100-yard entry time:

  • Double your 50-yard time for that stroke and add 10 seconds.
  • Enter the B time standard plus 5 seconds.

Estimating a 200-yard entry time:

  • Double your 100-yard time for that stroke and add 15 seconds.
  • Quadruple your 50-yard time for that stroke and add 30 seconds.
  • Enter the B time standard plus 5 seconds.
 
All swimmers need to have fins, snorkles and water bottles on deck each day.  Team uniforms, spirit wear and training gear can be found at Elsmore Swim Shop in the Countrywood Shopping Center.
