    Important Meet Information for June 14

    Happy Friday Tiger Sharks!

    BLUF: Attached are the heat sheets for our HOME meet Saturday versus El Dorado and Sonterra CC. We have OVER 200 swimmers participating in this event, so be prepared for a crowded meet.

    Keep reading for important reminders for Meet Day!

    Arrive on time. Please arrive no later than 7:00 AM. This will allow you time to park, set-up, and check-in before warm-ups. Tiger Sharks will warm up in the pool at 7:15 AM. Meet will begin at 8:30 AM.

    Park and set up in designated areas. Parking will be very limited due to the large number of swimmers that we have registered for this event. We encourage swimmers and families to walk to the pool if possible. The lot located on Overlook Parkway has been designated as Visiting Team parking. Families may also use the Specht Elementary lot for overflow parking. Please set up your personal tents/chairs in the areas designated on the map below as Tiger Sharks Family Set-Up. It will be tight! If you are planning to bring a pop-up tent for shade, please consider talking to your friends and neighbors about sharing tent space. 

    Print your heat sheets before the meet. If you would like a printed copy of the heat sheet to reference during the meet, you will need to print it yourself before arriving at the pool. Copies will not be available for general distribution. Scroll to the bottom of this email to find a link to the attached heat sheet. 

    Combined Events: When events or heats do not use all six lanes of the pool, we can combine events. This mean that we are able to run two events at one time, speed up the meet, and ultimately spend less time in the heat. The following heats/events will be combined:

    • Events 1 & 2
    • Events 3 & 4
    • Events 5 & 6
    • Event 28 & Event 29 Heat 1
    • Events 31 & 32
    • Events 33 & 34
    • Events 65 & 66

    Mark your swimmers arms. I cannot stress this enough- Please make sure that your swimmer's arm is marked BEFORE warm-ups. 

    Check in upon arrival. All swimmers and volunteers need to check in upon arrival. Michelle Russell will be under the pavilion with swimmer check-in lists. Swimmers that fail to check-in may be scratched from events. Volunteer check-in will be located at the scorekeeper table. All volunteers must check in to receive points for their shift(s).

    Check out the website for more meet day information and tips!

    Keep an eye on weather reports. On the bright side, we are forecast for a high of 91, which is much lower than last weekend. On the not so bright side (literally), we currently have an 80% chance of rain. We all know that San Antonio weather can change in an instant and that chance of rain can disappear. Just be mindful, plan ahead, and don't assume the meet is canceled until we tell you it is cancelled.

    If you have any questions or concerns today or tomorrow, don't hesitate to reach out to me at 832-423-6014 (but fair warning- my phone goes on Do Not Disturb at 9:30 PM).

    Go Tiger Sharks!
