Swim Meet Information

SWIMMER - MEET GUIDELINES

1. Please email the team by the Wednesday before a meet if you cannot attend. This is VERY important because it is is difficult to make changes the day of the meet. If you are sick or have an emergency, the day of the meet, please call Michelle Pouncy (215-820-2160) or Annemarie Yerkes (215-292-2561).

2. Pack your child WATER and snacks for them to have on-deck. ALL swimmers MUST remain on deck for the entire meet. The ready moms will pull them for their events as they come up and if they wander off, they will miss their event. PLEASE explain this to your child--it is controlled chaos on deck and the moms are still learning who each child is!

3. Pack your child something to do on their down time that is WATERPROOF!!

4. Pack your child at least TWO towels--they get wet very quickly and the children get cold!

5. Do not forget goggles and swim caps (for the girls or long haired boys they are mandatory!)

6. The balcony viewing area gets HOT...please dress in layers!

7. ABSOLUTELY NO PARENTS on the pool deck during the meet except for meet workers! This is an insurance/safety issue! Our deck is one of the larger ones, but with two FULL teams it will be crowded. The Official and our Stroke and Turn judges will be walking the pool length to judge and cannot trip over parents. Thank you in advance!

8. JEWELRY-Please note, no jewelry should be worn for meets or practices. This is a CYSL rule.
