• Meet Start: 5:30 PM

⏱️ Timer Reminder

• At the last meet, one lane had times more than 10 seconds off due to the Blue Dolphin stopwatches not being stopped immediately.
• Stop the watch the moment anything touches the wall. Swimmers work too hard for mistakes.

🏊 Team Area Rules

• Only swimmers allowed in the team area.
• Older swimmers should help younger ones.
• Clerks are not responsible for finding swimmers outside the area.
• Missing a race = swimmer’s responsibility. We will not look for you outside team area. 
• No swimmers in the semicircle area :  Swimmers cannot hear the clerks and it widens the mess we have to clean up. 
• Use trash cans – keep the area clean and respectful.
• The team area runs smoothly when everyone does their part...no need for constant supervision, just thoughtful teammates.

🤝 Behavior Expectations

• Be respectful, responsible, and kind to:
  • Yourself
  • Teammates
  • Coaches
  • Competitors
  • Spectators
• Older swimmers: Be role models and help the littles.

🧢 Relays

• Clerks will assist with 8 & Under relays to help our youngest swimmers feel confident and ready.
• Swimmers ages 9/10 and up are expected to manage themselves after being lined up.
• 9/10 and older know how to do it—they’ve been practicing all season and many have done this for years.
• Encouraging independence helps them build confidence and teamwork.

Thank you all for your energy, teamwork, and dedication throughout the season. Let’s make tonight a celebration of our swimmers, our seniors, and our amazing community. Be respectful, be responsible, and most of all—have fun.
