Tonight’s Meet

Ducks and pictures will be available outside the gate from 5:00 – 5:30PM.

The meet will be at Broadway TONIGHT beginning at 6PM. Swimmers please arrive at 5PM and meet in the grassy area outside the pool for stretching. Swimmers will not be allowed in the pool area until at least 5:10PM. Parents are asked to stay in the grassy area outside the pool or near their vehicles until 5:30PM, unless you are helping to set up for the meet. Our team will warm up from 5:00 – 5:25PM. Massanutten will begin warm ups at 5:25 and I have sent an email letting them know that parents will not be allowed in the pool area until 5:30PM.

• Please do not block the entrance way to the pool. Parents, unless volunteering to help set up for the meet, will not be allowed into the pool area until 5:30PM. Please note that we will be setting up the deck a little differently for this meet, so we want to have areas blocked off before parents enter. 
• It is VERY important to put your swimmer(s) three digit number on their body with a sharpie that is easily read and seen. From now on, please place a “B” prior to the number. Make sure it is legible as it is how their time gets recorded. 
• Make sure you and your swimmer know which events they are swimming. Clerk of Course will assist them getting in the right lane and heat. However, the swimmer knowing that information helps too.
• Remind your swimmer(s) to stay in the pool until all swimmers are done. Good sportsmanship is something Broadway strives for.

If you bring and set up a tent tonight, it needs to be secured to the ground.

We are trying something new this meet, we will have the scoring tent and starter where it is highlighting pink below. The clerk of course will be where the scoring tent used to be. Parents you may set up in the deep end if you wish and around the scoring tent, but please make sure to leave a path for swimmers to get to the clerk of course. 

Go Sharks!
