Developmental B Meets
B Meets, held on Monday evenings, provide ALL swimmers the opportunity to swim with other NVSL teams in the area. Generally 5-6 B Meets are held each season. B Meets consist of the same events in freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke and butterfly as the A Meets. B Meets do not have relay events, but can include the individual medley (IM) if time allows and both teams agree. The IM is a 100-meter event composed of 25 meters of each of the four individual strokes in the order of fly, back, breast, free.
Swimmers may participate in a maximum of two events at B Meets. For the order of events click here.
All Monday meets start at 6:00 pm unless otherwise announced. The meet warm-up times will be as follows: the home team warms up from 5:15-5:30 pm, and the away team warms up from 5:30-5:45 pm.
The B Meet Coordinator will open B Meet registration on Tuesdays following the lastpractice of the day. All swimmer and volunteer registrations for B Meets will close on Sundays at 2 pm sharp. No exceptions will be made for any reason. No time cards will be written on the deck. Any volunteer slot still open at 2:00pm on Sunday will be filled by parents who have signed up their child (ren) to swim the meet andwho have worked the least amount of meets/shifts. The Volunteer Coordinator and the B Meet Coordinator will work together to assign parents to the job vacancies. Those parents will be notified by email on Sunday night of their assignments. If for some reason you absolutely cannot work the meet, please contact the Volunteer Coordinator or B Meet Coordinator by 2 pm on Sunday, otherwise your swimmer(s) may be pulled from the meet. Numerous volunteers are needed to run a meet and we need everyone to volunteer. If you have a preference as to which job you would like to work, we strongly encourage you sign up quickly. This will eliminate the need for the extra emails requesting volunteers which we know can be frustrating to those who have already signed up to volunteer.
