BTA Junior Meet ( 9-10 Open Meet)

Parents - The Warm Ups, Timeline and Job Sign Ups have been posted online for the BTA meet this weekend. A couple quick notes on this meet:

• The location was changed from the original pool. Please make sure to read the invite for the new location.
• The seating has been moved to outdoors. If your family has pop up tents available we would like to get a "little city" of tents going for our swimmers and parents to sit together. At this point I do not know if it is covered seating or not. 
• Spectators will most likely be allowed to flow through the pool to watch their swimmers swims and then encouraged to sit outside between events.
• When signing up to time a spot please try to time near your swimmers last event of the meet. This will allow parents who have swimmers only in early events to sign up for these first spots. Ultimately we are responsible for timing all slots and will have to fill them prior to the meet.
• The coaching staff will set up on the pool deck so swimmers should talk to them pre and post swims.
• Reminder to have your swimmer circle in for their events. Any scratches need to be brought to the coaches attention by the swimmer prior to doing so.
• RICE will have relays and we will get these emailed out on Friday. They are eligible to change the day of the meet. 
• All swimmer MUST attend warm up with the team.
• Reminder we are having a parent meeting on Swim Meets this Thursday 6:00 - 7:00 if you have never attended a USA swim meet or just want a refresher.

See you guys at the pool,
Coach Jason
