Swimmers must check in at meets!

All swimmers should be there by 5:20 for warm ups.

 

Check in is required by 5:45.  Remember check in is mandatory in order to swim.  We will have a parent from our team at the gate checking swimmers in.  If you are running late, call a friend and have them check you in.

 

 

PARENT VOLUNTEERS

We do require that at least one family member volunteer at each swim meet.  Most positions do not require experience.  We plan to fill all volunteer positions for all swim meets prior to the season.  Please mark the positions on the registration form that you would prefer or would like to try.  We will try our best to accommodate you.  If you don’t have a preference we will fill you in where needed.  We will post the positions at each swim meet.  Please make sure you check these sheets so that you know where you are working.

  Thank you so much!

 

CERTIFICATION CLINICS

The value of certified officials and volunteers can’t be measured. Without them the meets cannot go on. It's easy, fun, and you are helping your team run smoother, faster meets. Clinics will be held starting in May and June, leading up to the summer season.  Check the GRAL website (www.GRALVA.COM) site often for updates and class schedules.

SWIM SUITS

Disco Sports has moved into the old Darryl's Restaurant building that is located behind Regency Square Mall.  Just let them know you swim with Antioch and they should know which suit.  They are located at 1400 Starling Dr, Richmond, VA 23229.  (804) 285-4242

 

If you need a suit get them as soon as possible.  This is the second (and last) year with this suit and they could run out.   Click here to go to the Swim Suit Exchange Board if you are donating, selling, or looking for a previously owned current year swim team suit.

WEATHER POLICY

 

In the event of lightning or thunder, as described above, all swimmers and observers will be directed to go to their cars and wait. Notification of delay, rescheduling or resuming of the meet will be made over the PA.  Cancellation/postponements are to be decided by the Parent Rep from each team, the pool management and the meet director, after a MINIMUM 30 minute delay.  A 30 minute waiting period is to be enforced from the last sighting of lightning or thunder. The League encourages teams to wait out the storm delay and finish the meet.  It is easier to wait it out with all officials and workers in place than to schedule another night to come back.  Information on storms in the area and

the remaining time necessary to complete the meet will be taken into consideration. 

  If a swimmer must leave or will not be swimming in a certain event, notify the coach before doing so.

Meets must be completed in sequence.  Any meets postponed must be completed prior to the next meet to avoid giving an unfair advantage to any team. Swim meets cannot be postponed until after the beginning of a meet. 

Attend each meet, despite bad weather.  The weather may be fine where we are swimming.
