Finals Heat Sheet Round 1
July 13th
Here is the 1st round of the heat sheet for finals.
- In the heat sheet, any heat that is a Heat 1 of 3 is the alternates (there are 2 alternates listed). We will only be swimming 2 heats of each event at finals (a slower heat and a faster championship heat), but this is the only way to list the alternates. This is also why I am not showing the estimated start times on the heat sheet since they will not be correct with the extra heat in most of the events. We will update the estimated start times right before the beginning of the meet (after the scratch meeting) once the alternates heats are not needed anymore.
- I will now need to know about any scratches from every team. You will need to email me the name of the swimmer, team and event(s) that the swimmer is scratched from so that I can move up any alternates (same for any relay scratches). Please do this ASAP so that we can let the alternate(s) know that they have moved up.
- In order to make relay changes, I will need to have the swimmer’s info emailed to me and specify which relay (event number and A, B, C, etc. relay) is changing (include the swimmer order). If a swimmer that you are adding to the relay is not already in the top 18 in an event in finals, then I will need the exact matching info that Swimtopia has on that swimmer so that I can manually add them in the finals meet in Meet Maestro for the relay (to avoid duplicates in the roster when the results get uploaded). This is found in your team’s Swimtopia site by going to Manage Team > People > Click on the Athlete’s name > Click on Edit. I will need their First Name, Middle Name (usually just the initial), Last Name and Birthday, plus your team.
- I need all of the relay changes by 2pm tomorrow (7/14) so that the finalized heat sheet can be sent out by 6pm at the latest.
