Meet Etiquette
This is your child's chance to show you what they can do. Relax and embrace the crowd...the heat...the controlled chaos! It will all be there and how you react can affect how your child responds. Remember that this is summer swim and it should be FUN for your swimmer! If your child is DQ'd, it is ok! This is a great opportunity to take what you learn and improve! If your child misses their event, it is ok! There will be other races!
Please be respectful to all volunteers and coaches. Only coaches are allowed to address officials, so please direct any questions or concerns to your team's coaches.
