FAST / GOAL Sprint Cup *Important* Information
A few important meet reminders from the Host Club:
- The AM session is a Prelims/Finals session. All events 100 Meters and Under will have the Top 12 Finishers compete in the finals session. The finals session will start at approximately 11:00AM.
- Swimmers in the Top 12 that CANNOT participate should scratch their event. The results for the event will be posted and announced as soon as the event can be closed. Once the Top 12 is announced, the swimmers will have 10 minutes to scratch. Once the event is closed, no additional changes should be made.
- Swimmers can only swim TWO finals events. They must scratch an event, or they will be scratched from their THIRD event of the finals session.
- As soon as all of the prelim events are completed, a finals program will be posted around the facility and posted online. We will have finals programs for coaches, but we will not print copies for purchase.
- I will take any scratches before tomorrow at 9:00AM, after that, everything is final.
A few housekeeping items:
- Crashing will be allowed in the bleachers around the pool. However, ALL WALK ways need to remain clear for the pool staff to navigate the deck.
- Shoes are to be worn when not in the pool area.
- Coaching hospitality will be in the room off of the main gym.
- Programs will be posted on the website today in afternoon.
- A limited number of programs will be available on site and posted around the facility. When they are sold out, we will not run any additional for the session, as they are posted free online.
- Reminder of the time change for the PM session: Warmups are at 12:30 and will conclude at 1:05. The session will begin at 1:10, and conclude with our finals heats of the 50/100 free Top 6 at approximately 4:30PM. The timeline is posted on the website.

Finals: Please review the meet information carefully regarding the finals as there are a few important points to note.
● There will be warmup between the Sunday "prelims" in the AM and the finals session, but the length of warmup will depend on the speed of the AM session. We will try to get the swimmers a 10-15-minute break between the "prelims" and "finals" session.
● The "finals" session for the 50 and 100 freestyle of the 12&Under session will begin as soon as the timed finals session has concluded.
