REGULAR SEASON MEETS: Swimmers must be able to swim the length of the pool unassisted in order to swim in dual meets.

CHAMPS: In addition to the above, swimmers must meet the following criteria:

• No NT entries in Championship Meet
• All swimmers must have a legal dual meet time from the current season in the CHAMPS events they choose to enter. Mock Meet times do not qualify.
• A swimmer does not have to have a legal time in a stroke to be able to swim it in a relay, only in an individual event. Neither Intra-squad meets nor Time Trials fulfill this requirement.

If you are unable to attend the swim meet, you must still register as not attending. We need to know this information when the meet is being built.

Volunteer Obligations:

• Meets are run entirely by volunteers! If you are unable to attend the meet, then someone else needs to fill in for your role in addition to fulfilling their role.
• Please inform the Head Ref as early as possible the dates of any swim meets you will not be attending.
• Please review your volunteer role duties prior to the meet and contact your volunteer lead if you have any questions.

Crocs Relay Policy rewards swimmers with the opportunity to swim in additional races. Relay races for swimmers 7-18 year old will be assigned based on the coach's discretion. There are a number of factors, aside from the fastest times, that go into building a relay such as consistency, hard work, and chemistry.

This is a healthy incentive to work hard and promotes competitive swimming. Although the Crocodiles Swim Team is a fun summer team, its priority is always to compete at the highest level. It is at the discretion of the Head Coach to decide if they want to rotate swimmers.

We hope to enhance the swimmers' enjoyment and give them a good experience that will encourage them to work hard to achieve relay status.

• Relays are special, swimming on a relay is a privilege and not a right.
• There are limited spots available on the relays. If you've selected that your child is available to stay for a relay and then leave, you are now taking a relay experience away from 3 other swimmers.
• Swimmers that miss relays due to arriving late to a meet or leaving early may forfeit their opportunity to be selected in future relays.
• Swimmers must arrive in time to participate in warm-ups. Swimmers that do not make it in time for warm-ups will be scratched from the relay teams. We have to check in swimmers and verify relay teams prior to the start of the meet. When a swimmer isn't here in time for team check-in's then the relay has to be re-seeded on deck and in the computer or scratched for legality purposes.
