Meet Directors
Check the schedule to see when your team hosts the
meet. One week in advance of the meet that you host please:
Arrange a head timer and card runner for the duration of
the meet. Please have two card runners available for the 50-yard freestyle as
it is difficult for one runner to keep up with the heats during the race.
Your volunteers need to be in place during the entire
meet. Positions can be rotated with substitutes, but make sure the substitute
is in place before making the change. Timers must be in their assigned lanes.
Each school needs to make sure their lane is covered for the duration of the
meet. We run 9 lanes during the dual season with 2 timers in each lane.
Meet set-up needs to be complete by 4:30 P.M.
- Put out 18 chairs for
timers and 4 chairs at the scoring table. Move 6 small white tables to the
coaching area with 2 chairs at each table.
- Put pencils and event
sheets on clipboards, 9 for timers, 8 for officials.
- Set out watches with
clipboards, 1 per lane and 2 for the head timer
- Place lap counter bells
under timer chair, 1 per lane.
- Place bin of lap counters
at the southwest end of the pool.
- Make sure all timers are
in their lanes and ready for instruction by 4:45 P.M., and each timer
understands that each timer must press both one timing system back-up
button and one stop watch simultaneously.
-
Following the meet, put the clipboards, pencils, lap
counters, bells, and watches back in their containers. Stack the chairs and
white tables under the scoreboard. Send swimmers with trash bags to collect
trash on deck and in bleachers. If you send trash bags through the
bleachers during the meet it helps with the trash collection.
