Meet Results

Make sure to indicate your SCOTTISH HILLS MEET ATTENDANCE - 

This is an AWAY meet. I have now opened the system to allow your swimmer to select the events they would like to swim. They may choose a MAXIMUM of 3 individual events. If you select 4, I will make the choice of which event to remove. I may also move your swimmer based on need for Main Events.

THEME: Red, White & Blue!

It is very important that you indicate accurate attendance plans. The efficiency of the meet and accuracy of the timing is significantly effected by no shows or by swimmers attending that we are not expecting to.

CARY CITY CHAMPIONSHIP MEET -- So far we have 51 swimmers entered... my goal is for us to bring 150! Make sure to sign up ASAP!
