OTHER IMPORTANT INFORMATION

• The Divisional / Champs meet is the biggest (and most exciting) meet of the season.
• The Sailfish will be competing against the other 4 teams in our league's division at the same time, in a large, deep, very "professional" pool setting.
• It's a large, LOUD, fast-paced event.
• Due to the size of the meet, we are limited in the number of swimmers/relays we are allowed to enter in each event; at this meet, your swimmer MAY end up swimming events that they don't routinely swim. We try to make sure we enter a relay in every event, so sometimes we ask our younger swimmers to "swim up" with older relays so Canyon Springs Sailfish are represented.

AWARDS

• Swimmers earn MEDALS for 1st-3rd places and ribbons for up to 16th place.
• Plaques will be given to the boy and girl who score the most points in their respective age group.
• Banners will be given to the team that scores the most points in each age group, by gender (these are the banners that we proudly display along the gutters at the pool for our Home meets.)

It's a great experience, and we hope that ALL SAILFISH SWIMMERS will participate and believe that knowing some of the above details will help your swimmer (and you) be adequately prepared.

Please reach out to a parent board member or coach if you have questions.
