Swimmers must attend at least 2 dual meets and swim in 2 events at each to qualify for Champs.

ALL swimmers swim all events in prelims and the top ten swimmers in each age group & event will advance to finals. 6U's only swim on Saturday. More details on this meet will come soon.

Swimmer Check In- 6:45am. All swimmers must check in at 6:45. The check-in table will be in front of the team tent area. If you are going to be late, please TEXT (do not call) your swimmers’ last name, first name, age as well as an estimated arrival time to 916-572-9794. At 7:00am, the check in table will be shut down and we will commence with scratch. Failure to check in before 7 will result in a swimmer being scratched from the meet. After check in, please have your swimmer proceed to their designated team tent. Team parents- do not check in with Annie, head directly to your age group tent.

Volunteer Check In - 6:45am. Both first and second shift volunteers must check in with Annie at 6:45am sharp. She will be next to the swimmers check in table. Please text Annie at 916-500-1308 if you are going to be late.

Please note- if you are late, both a text for the swimmer and a text for the volunteer needs to happen. Please arrive on time.

Meet Mobile – Meet information will be given out on Saturday morning. Unfortunately, they do not use Time Drops so we will not have access to that.

Event, heat and lane assignments will be uploaded after seeding. Meet Mobile is a Meet Program in the palm of your hand. It will have your swimmers’ events, estimated time of the event and the results. If you have not downloaded the Meet Mobile app or would like more info, follow the link below.

Photography- NCSL policy on photography and videography at NCSL events, the following is strictly prohibited:

Photographs or videos taken behind a swimmer who is preparing to enter the pool for a race. This includes images captured from behind the blocks and relays starts on the other side of the pool.

Any photography or videography in locker rooms or changing rooms. This is a strict violation of privacy and is never permitted.

Weather Report- While this is an indoor pool and it will be nice and toasty indoors its will be, at 6:45 it’ll be around 58F. Around 1:00 we should expect the temp to hit a nice 73F, with a light breeze and gusts up to 23mph.

Parking: You are going to want to enter the campus at the Sutterville Rd entrance just past the football stadium. There are multiple parking lots including one right next to the pool and a parking garage close by. Please see the attached map. Parking is $2. Parking enforcement is most likely going to happen and I know that tickets for not getting a pass are about $33.

Kisoks are located in all of the parking lots and on the 2^nd floor of the parking structure.

Team Tent Area: We will have our team tents in the visitor area marked on the attached map.

Families – if you can share tents with any other families please do as there is limited space. You may set up anywhere on the grass that is not marked on the map as visitor or stingrays. There is limited bleacher space inside, so they request that families do not camp out on the bleachers.

Restrooms: Restrooms are located in the baseball stadium next to the pool entrance. It is marked on the attached map.
