Our 1st Swim Meet of the summer is right around the corner - a HOME MEET on Sat. June 3rd.  You must go onto our website to declare your swimmer as participating or not participating in this meet by noon on Wednesday, May 31.  If nothing is entered, it will be assumed that your swimmer is NOT participating and they will not be entered into any events.  See below for step by step directions on how to enter meet declarations.  As always, please reach out with any quesitons!  I also encourage you to go ahead and download the Swimtopia App on your phone in preparation for the season - you will be able to follow along during the meet and see results in the App!

To enter Meet Declarations:

1. Go to the team website - hampdenheights.swimtopia.com

2. Navigate to the "Meets & Events" tab at the top

3. Scroll down to the June 3rd meet.  Click on the green link that says "Meet Entry". 

4. You will see your swimmers - click on the yellow "Edit" button.

5. For each swimmer, use the dropdown menu to select "Attending" or "Not attending".

6. Once you select "Attending", you will see the events for which your swimmer is eligible.  You CAN select up to 3 events - this is an opportunity to make a request if there is a specific race(s) that you want your swimmer to do, however coaches have the final say in which events each swimmer does.  If you do not know or care which races your swimmer should do, you can leave this screen blank and coaches will select the appropriate events.  Don't forget to hit save at the bottom.

7. NEW THIS YEAR: You will see a dropdown menu about relays.  There are relays at the beginning and end of the meet.  You have the ability to let coaches know if your swimmer is or is not available for both the early and late relays.  Remember - swim meets are long and those late relays will not happen until at least 11:30-12:30 or so.  Opt out if you cannot commit to staying until the end.  

8.  Finally, there is a spot for you to enter notes and comments to the coaches to help them in setting events for the meet.  

9.  Click save and you are all set!  THIS MUST BE COMPLETE BY NOON ON WEDNESDAY, MAY 31ST.  Undeclared swimmers will not be placed into any events for the June 3rd meet.

Note - you can go in and declare your swimmer for all of the meets at this time (we have 5 meets - 3 Home and 2 Away).  The deadline will be noon on the Wednesday prior to each Saturday but you can knock out the whole season now if you want to!!

I will send out an email on Thursday night each week with the details about what events your swimmer is registered for and many other meet details.  Let me know if you have any questions!

Thanks!
