As we move into the new year and new pool the opportunity for RICE to host swim meets is now a possibility. Not only has GULF shown interest in using the facility for this coming Longcourse season, we (RICE) are wanting to host some intra-squad meets for own team. In order for any of these meets to be sanctioned and count we must have a certified meet director to help run/administer the meet. All USA swim meets are based heavily on volunteer help from parents like you. The GULF is hosting a meet directors clinic for anyone wanting to learn and get certified as a meet director. This will be good for the entire year. It is crucial to the teams growth that we have at least one (if not more) parent(s) who are certified as meet directors. Please read the listed info and if you plan on attending email the embedded link. You can also find more info on www.gulfswimming.org. If you plan on attending please email me with your intent.
The annual Gulf Swimming Meet Directors Clinic will be held on
Wednesday, August 26 at 6:30 pm in room 2001 at the University of
Houston Athletic/Alumni Center.
All teams hosting Gulf meets during the 2009-10 short course and 2010
long course seasons must have a certified meet director on deck during
meets and to receive a meet sanction. Currently certified meet directors
may recertify for 2010 by attending the meeting. New meet directors must
attend the meeting and pass the test.
Dinner will be served. Please respond back to Henry Clark you plan to attend
so that we may order enough food.
Thank you again for all of your support for the team and your swimmers!
See you at the pool,
Coach Jason
