We hope everyone is excited for the 2010 Indy Meet! Please take some time to read the Meet Packet and this email fully, to make sure you understand all the rules and timelines. Many things are different in Indiana!
- Time Change. Indiana is on Eastern Time. Set your clocks one hour later!
- Entries. Make sure so check out your entries on the team website. They have been updated.
- Relays. We will make relays at the meet based on who is in attendance, and performance at the meet. You can look at the website to see which relays we have entered.
- Championship Meet Scratch Rule. If you check in and then miss an event (prelims), you will be scratched from your NEXT event as well. All Wheaton swimmers who make finals (13&O swimmers), should plan on swimming in finals! If you absolutely cannot swim finals, you must scratch that event within 30 minutes of the results being posted (with coaches’ approval!). Otherwise you may be removed from the rest of the meet.
- Friday Night Events. A psyche sheet is now available for Friday night events. Swimmers above the line WILL swim, and swimmers below the line are considered alternates. You will have your fees refunded if you do not get to swim. Please see the coaches if you have any questions about this. Swimmers who miss a Friday night event risk being removed from the rest of the meet!
- Check-in. Check in closes 45 minutes prior to each session. Get there early! If you know ahead of time you will not be attending a session (i.e. Friday night), email us right away. That way the alternates will get to swim.
- Apparel. Bring as much team apparel as you can. Also bring warm clothes – it can be chilly on the IUPUI pool deck.
- Have fun! Most importantly, have fun! The IUPUI Natatorium is one of the finest facilities in the world and is within walking distance of a lot of great stuff in downtown Indy! Good luck and swim fast!
