    CHMSC Qualifying Explanation

    Here's a breakdown of how CHMC works:

    • A swimmer may enter up to four (4) events, of which no more than three (3) may be individual events.
    • Deck entries are not permitted.
    • CHMCS is a "Faster Than/No Faster Than" qualifying meet. This means a swimmer has to be faster than a time, but no faster than another time. 
    • For example, in the "9-10 Girls 50 Free" a swimmer would need to be faster than 41.50, but no faster than 35.50 to qualify. 
    • On our team website, where you choose your entries, only the sessions and events your swimmer is eligible for will allow you to click anything.

    Additionally, there are bonus events allowed. So, what's a bonus event?

    BONUS EVENTS: If a swimmer only qualified for one or two individual events they may also enter bonus events up to the maximum of three (3) individual events including bonus events and one (1) relay. The bonus events are swimmers’ choice and they do not need to meet the minimum qualifying time (the faster than time), however they may not exceed the maximum qualifying time (the NO faster than time).

    If you want a bonus event(s), you'll need to let me know in the notes section, since I'll need to override the team settings and place the entry myself for your swimmer. 

    In summary:

    • Choose your events that you are qualified for (max of 3).
    • Leave a note for prioritization of those.
    • Leave a note if you want a bonus event (max total of 3 individual events including ones you already qualified for).
    • You may choose two bonus events even if you only qualified for one event to begin with.
    • The coaches choose the relays.

    Good luck!
