For Championship meets, it is an honor for you to
compete for TEAM SSC if you have qualified for that meet.
As such, if you have acheived Age Group State Time
Standards, then you will be automatically entered
for the Age Group State meet to represent SSC in its final 14 and
under championship meet. Lists of athletes that have in fact
qualified for the meet will be posted in the Meet section to help
provide information closer to the date of the meet. The Divisional
Championships (all age groups), Age Group State Meet (14 and
unders) and the Senior State Meet (15 and overs) follow this
format.
These are structured to give swimmers performance goals.
First you try to qualify for Divisionals, which is a meet for all
age groups. If you are 14 and under and have already qualified for
Divisionals, your next goal is to shoot for Age Group State.
Similarly, if you are 15 and over and have already achieved
Divisional cuts, the next step is to aim for Senior State. After
Senior State, senior level swimmers have a network of regional and
national meets to aim for.
If for some reason
you believe you are not able to compete on a given day or at a
given meet, it is extremely important that you notify your group
coach well in advance. This happens only in extreme
circumstances. Typically we have over 95% participation rates
for these meets. Of course, this is all made easier if you
familiarize yourself with the meet schedule, each meet’s
qualifying times, and your swimmer’s best times. In the
Meets and Events section, each competition will have greater
detailed instructions. As always, please consult the coaching
staff should you have any questions.
