    Arrival Time: NEYS @ North Penn, Saturday, 12/9

    Good afternoon everyone,

    Reminder: We have an away dual meet against North Penn tomorrow.

    • Date: Saturday, 12/9
    • Location: North Penn YMCA, 608 E Main Street, Lansdale, PA 19446

    Some GPS devices will send you to Souderton, PA (Indian Valley - a branch of North Penn YMCA) - Do NOT go there.

    • Arrival Time: 12:00 pm
    • Warm-Up: 12:30 pm
    • Meet Start: 1:10 pm

    WAIVER: North Penn YMCA requires a waiver form be filled out and submitted the day of the meet. There will be forms available there, but to save yourself some time, please print and fill out prior to arrival. The form is attached to this email.

    Spectators:

    • Spectators may bring their own chairs. There is a large glass window that runs the length of pool for you to watch from the lobby. 
    • No parents on deck unless volunteering; there is very limited deck space.  

    Swimmers

    • 10/Under: Lined up by marshallers for events.
    • 11/Above: Must keep track of their own events.
    • Be flexible: Changes ALWAYS occur just before and during the meet, so swimmers MUST stay on deck as much as possible and listen for their name being called, AND stay suited up, in uniform, until the end of the meet.
    • Swimmers are likely going to be spread out between two connecting pools to limit congestion on deck.
    • Meet Line-Up: Will be emailed late Saturday morning and posted on a wall at the meet. Please do NOT text, email, or call, about the line-up. Again, it will be available at the meet and there are always changes just prior to and during the meet. BUT DEFINITELY do call or text me if an emergency prevents you from attending, or your child is sick and cannot attend.
    • You can also see what events your swimmer is in by downloading the Swimtopia app to your phone. You cannot see live results or heats at this meet on the app (that's only with the summer league), but you can see the initial entries. Some will change after the meet starts, but for the vast majority of swimmers their events will remain the same even if their heat/lane is modified. What's more important is they get to the back of the blocks by the start of the event. 

    See you on deck,

    Coach Drake
