Please reach out to the visiting team's coach via email at least 24 hours and preferably 48 hours before the day of the meet you are hosting.
Things to include:
Ask whether they would like even or odd lanes. Provide them with some perspective where lanes the outside lanes are in relation to where their team will be sitting.
Some detail on where the athletes should enter the building and how to get the pool
Some detail on where their athletes can change
What events you would like exhibition heats for and ask if there are any additional events that they would like exhibition heats
If there will be a livestream and if there is, the link where parents can access it
Hopefully we are past this, but any COVID restrictions for athletes
What time the pool will be open for warmup
Any special events that may extend the meet (Senior Night, Parent Night, etc.)
Anything unique about the facility that would be good for coaches to know in advance (example: Orono starting end is 5 ft deep)
Visiting coach Tip: Email yourself with an attachment of the meet entry file if you are bringing it on a USB drive. If for some reason the USB drive fails or it's not on there, you have a backup copy right on your phone
