508 [PGBSC Blog] information regarding the Kamloops swim meet

THIS MESSAGE IS FOR THOSE ATTENDING THE KAMLOOPS INVITATIONAL NEXT WEEKEND

 

One week to go until the club heads down to Kamloops!

 

This morning I have a number of items to pass on to you.

 

1.       Those travelling with the club are to be at the Aquatic Centre Thursday June 6 at 8:45am.  The club will be returning to PG Monday June 10.

2.       There is a practice Thursday June 6 in Kamloops starting at 5:30pm.  If you are still travelling at that time, see you Friday am.

3.       The start times are being changed.  In order to maintain a proper session length and minimize the need to limit the number of swim events, Kamloops has decided to adjust the warm-up and start times for the Saturday and Sunday Sessions.

 

Accordingly the meet will proceed as follows.  Be on deck 20 minutes prior to the beginning of warm ups

Friday Prelim Warm-up: 12&U, 7:00 am – 7:35 am; 13&O 7:35 am – 8:15 am; 8:30 am Start

Saturday Prelim Warm-up: 12&U, 6:45 am – 7:15 am; 13&O 7:15 am – 7:50 am; 8:00 am Start. 

Sunday Prelim Warm-up: 12&U, 6:45 am – 7:15 am; 13&O 7:15 am – 7:50 am; 8:00 am Start.

Finals for all three days will have warm-up 4:00 pm – 4:50 pm with racing at 5:00 pm. 

4.       The 50 and 100 of each stroke, 200 free and 200 im will  be swum as Heats and A/B finals.  This means if you are 11 and over and place in the top 16 in the morning, you will be in finals.

5.       Relays for 11 and over are in the evening at the end of Friday and Saturday finals

That’s it for now.  Any questions, let me know.

 

Cheers,
