For each meet, you will need to declare whether or not your athlete will be swimming. Parents MUST declare "attending this meet" for each meet in order for their swimmer to be assigned to individual events or relays. Please declare "not attending this meet" rather than not responding so we are sure that a decision has been made.

To respond to a meet, click on the green Meet Entry button for the specified meet. Then click the Edit tab under your athletes' names and indicate decisions for each athlete. Click Save to confirm your preferences.

Availability for Relays

Please note that availability for relays does not guarantee selection for relays. Coaches will attempt to enter all swimmers into a relay at some point during the season.

• Available for all relays This selection indicates a swimmer is available to swim the first event of the meet (medley relay) and the last event of the meet (free relay), if selected.
• Arriving late, not available for early relays This selection indicates a swimmer is NOT available to swim the first event of the meet (medley relay) but WILL STAY through the last event of the meet (free relay), if selected.
• Leaving early, not available for late relays This selection indicates a swimmer is available to swim the first event of the meet (medley relay) but DOES NOT want to be entered into the last event of the meet (free relay).
• Not available for any relays This selection indicates a swimmer does not want to be considered for any relays for this meet.

Please note: Not showing up for a relay penalizes three other athletes who were excited about swimming. Often, we are unable to fill that spot once the meet has started. For that reason, neglecting to show up for a relay could jeopardize future relay assignments, so please make sure your response reflects your plans.

Individual Events

Coaches will be selecting individual events for each swimmer. Coaches will use what they see in practices to put them in the best events for each swimmer. Spartanburg Summer Swim League has limitations on how many entries each team is allowed, so swimmers will be placed in events that are best for them, the team and availability. Each swimmer should get to swim 2 individual events. If there is not an available option, some swimmers may swim with an older age group. 

Swim Meet Jobs

Each family with swimmers participating in a meet must serve for the meet in a job specified by the swim team. Families are able to specify job preferences at the beginning of the season and families will be assigned a position.
