  • Swimmers that are “Undeclared” after the Monday 11pm sign up deadline will not be entered in the meet.
  • An Attendance Change after the 11pm Monday deadline is considered a “Late Change”.
  • A Late Change that is not due to a medical issue or family emergency is a violation of our attendance rules.
  • A Late Change must be communicated to the team by using the “Report Late Change” link that will appear in the calendar event after the Monday attendance deadline. This is the only way to communicate late changes. WhatsApp, Emails, Texts etc. will not be monitored for attendance changes.
  • Penalties for missed jobs will apply regardless of swimmer attendance or late change. The parent should perform their job or find a substitute.
