INTERNET SITE FOR MEET INFORMATION AND RESULTS: The
ELIGIBILITY: This meet
qualifies as one of the three meets needed for Eastern Zone Championships qualification. Only swimmers registered with
New Jersey Swimming may enter any event that they have not achieved New Jersey
Swimming SILVER TIME. (See attached events and time standards). SLOWER
THAN: SILVER TIME Standards apply to
all relay swimmers. Age as of March
5th, 2005 will apply for the whole
meet. No entries for swimmers 10 and
Under will be accepted for this meet!
Only 11-12, 13-14, and 15-16 events will be
run, and swimming up is not permitted under USA Swimming rules. Eight and under swimmers must swim in
MEET FORMAT: This meet will be run under current USS swimming rules. All events will be run as timed finals. Each event will be computer seeded to allow the connection of the timing system with the computer. Even though we believe that relays are very important, relays may be eliminated to allow for all individual entries to be swum within a timely manner. These changes, if any, will be given in the pre-meet information.
500 YD. FREESTYLES: There will be a Limited 500 yd. Freestyle. The fastest 24 swimmers in each age group will be allowed to swim this event. There will be a positive check in for these events. The psyche sheet for these events will be e-mailed prior to the meet. Swimmers that may not make the Top-24 swimmers can change events prior to the start of the meet. Swimmers being cut from these events can get a refund for these events at the meet control desk. These events will be swum slowest to fastest. There will be a 10 minute warm-up prior to the start of these events. In the 13-16 events, the fastest 24 13-14 swimmers and fastest 24 15-16 swimmers. If there are not 24 swimmers in one age group, then the next fastest swimmers will be taken from the othe age group.
ENTRY TIMES: All seed times must be SLOWER than the New Jersey
Silver Time Standards. Entries with “NO
TIMES” will not be accepted! A Meet Committee will be selected to handle all protests
including false entry times and illegal relay swimmers. All illegal swims after the meet will be
handled by
MEET INFORMATION: This meet is very hard to organize
due to the unknown number of swimmers who will
be attending. The meet will have two options: Option #1) Two sessions: 11-12 Boys and Girls in the morning
and 13 & Over Boys and Girls in the afternoon. Option #2) Three sessions: 11-12 Girls in the morning,
11-12, 13-14, and 15-16 Boys in the Mid-Session, and 13-14 and 15-16 Girls in
the late afternoon. NOTE: The Event
Numbers Stay the Same! Therefore, exact information on starting times will
be e-mailed to the clubs after entry registration is
completed. This information will
include meet time line, timing assignments, warm-up procedures, and the appropriate starting and warm-up
times. Hopefully this way of letting
clubs know about the correct meet information will eliminate the problem of having conflicting information in existence if any changes
are made!
SILVER QUALIFIERS:
Swimmers that achieve a New Jersey SILVER time standard at this meet can
swim that event at the New Jersey SILVER CHAMPS the following week. (March
12-13, 2005). You can enter the Silver
Champs via e-mail after the meet is over.

showing their coaching credentials.
Check-in will close 30 minutes before the start of each session. There will be no exception to this policy. Swimmers not checked in by the coaches will
be scratched. Swimmers
checked in who fail to appear for an event without good cause may be scratched
from the remainder of the meet. If a swimmer is inadvertently scratched by the
coach and is in attendance, reasonable efforts will be made to enter that
swimmer into the competition.

ENTRY LIMIT: Swimmers will
be allowed to enter a maximum of
three individual events each day. New Jersey Swimming reserves the
