Dear Hammerhead Families,

Attached are the heat sheets for this week’s meet.

Reminder, the Thursday/meet day practice schedule:

8-9am 5-10 year olds

9-10am 11-18 year olds

Only swimmers participating in the meet attend this practice and swimmers need to know what they are swimming in the meet before they get in the water for practice that morning.

For the meet:

As the host team, please be gracious to our guests:

Leave the parking lot for them – we can carpool, get one of the golfcart volunteers to pick you up!

Your swimmer needs to have their event “tattoo” before they get in the water for warm ups: https://harmonyhammerheads.swimtopia.com/marking-your-swimmer-for-meets-1

Swimmers do not need to check in with me prior to the meet, but if something unexpected comes up and your swimmer will NOT be doing their event, PLEASE let me know so the bullpen doesn’t go crazy looking for them!

All swimmers must report to the bullpen 5 events/heats prior to their event.

Parents/spectators can not interfere with the flow of the meet. To that end, no one is allowed in the bullpen/starting area except swimmers, coaches, and volunteers.

We all want to cheer on our kids but the volunteers must be able to hear the ref, so please be mindful of where you are standing to watch/cheer.

Everyone is encouraged to set up on the great lawn and only come into the pool deck for specific races.

As usual, Fun Friday with ribbons and donuts 9-10am!
