Swimmer “Write Up” Info:
During a meet, every swimmer participating will get “written on” (literally marker on their arm or leg) in order to help our swimmers remember what races they are swimming and help our bullpen parents line our swimmers up correctly. See below to learn more about the write up.
(E) Event number
(H) Heat number
(L) Lane number - this number will be blank until you get to the pool.
Stroke - The swim coaches will email the swimmers’ events prior to each meet. With the exception of the lane assignment, the other information can be completed prior to coming to the pool. Permanent sharpie marker works best for this task.
