Team Gear:

Please wear a regular suit and goggles.  If you choose to wear a swim cap for competition, it must be a MSA swim cap.  Coaches will have additional caps available at the meet that can be billed to your account.  Let’s really do our best to look like a team by wearing our MSA Team T-Shirts to the meet.

 

Heat Sheets:

Heat Sheets are added to the events page and hopefully attached. Please note that the timeline will not be exact and will likely run a little faster than posted.

If your swimmer wishes to have their events written on them, please do so before arriving at the pool for each session.

 

Additional Notes:

  • Parents can enter directly into the concourse doors.  No parents are allowed on the pool deck unless they are acting as a counter for their swimmer.  Those parents should check-in at the coaches, volunteer, and swimmer entrance prior to the event.

  • Remind your swimmers that no folding or camp chairs are allowed in the facility, as well as hard-sided coolers.  Stadium chairs are fine.

  • A cashless concession stand will be available throughout the meet.

  • This meet will be livestreaming this meet via YouTube!  Go to the HSA website for the link (swimhsa.org), or follow HSA Livestream on YouTube. 

  • The 400 IM, 1000 FR, 500 FR will all be run fast to slow, alternating heats of women and men.

  • All events will be swum on the “Flag” end of the pool, and run in 10 lanes.  The “window” end will remain open throughout the meet for warm-up and warm-down.

  • All parking will be on-site.  The front parking lot, and the large back parking lot are available for general parking.  The small lot behind the Legacy pool is closed due to pool renovations.

  • First Place Athletics will be onsite for all of your swim apparel needs

  • Athlete locker rooms are located on the deck.  Restrooms for coaches, officials and volunteers are in the main concourse area, as well as in the Legacy pool lobby.  There are also have several “family” restrooms for coaches and officials located near the Therapy pool, and in the Legacy pool lobby.  Please encourage your athletes to not use the concourse or family restrooms, and stick to the locker rooms that are athlete specific.

Remember, all swimmers, parents, and coaches are representing MSA so let’s put forth an excited and friendly demeanor.  We encourage parents and friends attending the meet to sit together to help support our athletes together!

 

See you at the pool,
