Long Course Seedings will be posted early in the week of July 4th. If meet results are submitted promptly, we
may be able to post preliminary seedings late Saturday July 2nd or
early Sunday July 3rd.
Unfortunately, this year we have not gotten meet results in a timely fashion. Please check with your team and division automation people to make sure that they understand the process and time requirements of submitting meet results. See the attached link for details.
Remember:
Coaches Long Course
Scratches are due by 6 pm Monday, July 4th. This is true regardless of whether
the “preliminary” seedings could be posted.
Scratches must be submitted
via email to: Automation@mcsl.org
Scratches
must include:
The name of the swimmer.
The name and abbreviation of the team.
A contact e-mail and phone.
A valid return e-mail address.
The stroke (s) that the swimmer does not
wish to swim.
Scratches
that are hypothetical, involve “what-if” scenarios, are contingent, or are
improperly submitted (e.g. “I want to swim back only”) will not be accepted,
nor will we notify the senders. Please
refer to the handbook (pages 57-58) regarding the seeding process. If it is important that your swimmer swims a
particular stroke, they should scratch out of other strokes – it is common for
higher level scratches and seeds to move swimmers several places, and likely
into other strokes, especially in this meet.
