Alert - JO Max notes

JO Max meet

In doing the entries for the JO max meet, I noticed that many of the swimmers are committed for Saturday only. Then I noticed that the event file (provided by the host team) had options of, "Day 1 Session 1" , and "Day 1 Session 2". Making it appear as though the meet was a one day meet with an early and late session. It should have listed a Day 1 and a Day 2 for Saturday and Sunday.

When the host makes a mistake on the entry file, we cannot edit it and it can create problems.

Some meets (like a championship heats and finals meet) can have 7 sessions or more, and it is very difficult to know which sessions are on which days (ESPECIALLY IF THE HOST SETS UP THE FILE WRONG). When entering a meet, the best way to make sure you are entered in the days that you are available is to commit to all sessions, and then put in the notes section things like. "CAN SWIM SUNDAY ONLY", or "MUST LEAVE BY 11:30 ON SATURDAY". This way, you don't have to know anything about the sessions, you select all sessions and then tell us which days you're available.

IMPORTANT

1) Deadline to commit is today. If you want to be entered, please commit by midnight.

2) If you have already committed, please go back and double check. If you are available to swim both Saturday and Sunday you must select all sessions. Otherwise the coaches can only enter you in the sessions you have committed to.

3) When you put events to enter in the notes, the coaches take those into consideration. However the coaches work with the swimmers regularly and may enter swimmers in other events based on what they feel is best for the overall development of the swimmer.

Thank you

Coach Dave
