INVITATIONAL MEET SIGN UP

Hi Everyone!  I just wanted to answer a few questions for the group.  I've gotten a couple of emails and I know it can be confusing, especially if this is your first year in Summer League.  I know we haven't even had the Divisional Meet yet, but the registration deadline for Invitationals is tomorrow after the meet.  If your swimmer has already qualified in the ALLSTARS MEET or PONDEROSA MEET, please sign up now.  I am already looking at entries and trying to figure out relays at both meets.

1) The two meets run in a similar format.  FREE/BACK and 10U Relays are predominantly on SAT for both meets and BREAST/FLY/IM and 11up Relays are on SUN.  If your swimmer qualified at PON for FREE and BACK but ALLSTARS for BEAST and FLY...they can do both meets...do not feel like you have to necessarily pick one or the other.

2) PONDEROSA RELAYS...I would love to have a relay for every age group...so if your swimmer is usually on the A RELAY for our TEAM (even if they haven't qualified individually) please commit them as attending and I will include them while creating relays.  Usually it can work out for them to do their events at ALLSTARS and then run over to PON for the relay.  Let me know if you have any specific questions about this.

3) There are no limits on the amount of individual events your swimmer can do at Invitationals.  With that said, you may not swim a PON qualified event at ALLSTARS.  So, if you are thinking...well they qualified for everything at ALLSTARS except for FREE and we would just rather be at ALLSTARS...you may not swim FREE at ALLSTARS and that includes the FREE Relay or FREE on the Medley Relay.

I know for many of you this is old information but for some this may be all very new!  As always, reach out if you have a question.
