PVS-11-45

INSTRUCTIONS/INFORMATION

This list is posted in order to confirm accuracy of entered swimmers.
Parents or swimmers with concerns should contact their coach or team meet entry coordinator before 5PM Friday February 11, as the Meet Director will only respond to inquires received from coaches or team meet entry coordinators by that time.

Seeding Procedures:

Swimmers will be seeded (permitted to swim) based on the order shown on the attached psych sheets for each event.
In order to follow the guidance regarding qualifying times and seeding found in this year's meet announcement, the following general procedures were followed:
Swimmers with a provable entry time in an event were seeded prior to swimmers entered with at time from the next shorter distance (i.e., 500 for the 1000 and 1000 for the 1650).
Coaches who believe their swimmer may have been improperly seeded should contact Bill Marlin, PVS Distance Coordinator to request a review of how their swimmer was seeded. If swimmers could have entered based on an intermediate time, please provide specific information including the meet, date and event. Please submit no later than 5PM Friday, February 11.

· It is expected that there will be a maximum of 16 heats of the 1000Y Free and 8 heats of the 1650Y Free will need to be swum. All heats of the 1000 will be swum before the heats of the 1650. We will be using a 10 lane course for all events.

· Based on historical scratch rates for this meet, we anticipate losing at least one heat of each event.

· The first heat of 1650 swimmers on should be ready to swim at 11:30 am.

· Additional water will be available for continuous warm-up and warm-down.

General Instructions

· Swimmers should report and check in promptly upon arrival.

· Lane assignments for each heat will be determined approximately 15 minutes prior to the time of the start of the heart.

· All swimmers will be provided with a time card showing their heat and lane assignment when they have been seeded into a heat.

· Once a heat has been seeded, meet management is not required to reseed it.

· Swimmers are strongly encouraged to report early and will be permitted to swim in an earlier heat if a lane is available.

· The slowest heats of women and men may/will be combined to produce full heats.
