Each Competitor must fulfill the following eligibility conditions:

1.  The swimmer must have been a member of his/her YMCA in good standing for at least 90 days prior to the date of the championship and entitled to full privilege membership activities.

2.  The swimmer must be an amateur and must not have represented another YMCA or another organization, high schools excepted, in open or closed competition since September 1, 2005.

3.  The swimmer must have represented his/her YMCA in closed competition on at least three separate occasions during the four (4) months period prior to Sunday, February 12, 2006.

4.  Participation is determined by the swimmer’s age as of December 1, 2005, and the swimmer may participate in that age group only.

5.  Each swimmer may enter three events with a maximum of 2 individual events. A swimmer may participate in multiple relays provided s/he does not exceed three events in total. There are no restrictions on the number of entries per team in individual events.

6.  Each team may enter one relay team only in each event. Coaches should make every effort to identify the most likely swimmers and enter those swimmers names in the relay events. Coaches will be allowed to change the names of the Medley Relay swimmers at the coaches meeting and change the names of the swimmers in the Free Relays within 15 minutes of the completion of the 50 freestyle events by bringing their changes to the computer/scoring table at the pool.

7.        Relay swimmers for this meet must be entered in the Bronze Championship and can only swim those strokes and distances on relays for which they qualify for in the Bronze championship.

8.        Entry in the New Jersey YMCA Bronze Championship Meet will be based on qualifying times exclusively and must be certified in either open, league, or dual meet competition. (Note 2006 rules which define a YMCA Inter-association Swim Meet.) Entry times may be challenged by the Competitive Coordinators who may ask for verification of any seed time.  All seed times must be provable. Swimmers or coaches who cannot produce verification will have these swimmers reassigned to the heat and lane their proof permits or entered as a "no time" and assigned to the slowest heat.

7.        A swimmer who has qualified in three events for the Silvers meet may participate at the Bronze in any event other than the Silver qualifying event or on a relay where they would be performing this stroke. For example: an 11-12 swimmer qualifying for the Silver meet in the 50 free would not be eligible to swim the individual 50 Free, or the freestyle leg of the medley relay or participate in the 200 free relay at the Bronze meet. A swimmer who has four or more YMCA Silver Qualifying times and/or one or more State Championship qualifying time is not eligible for this meet.

10.   8/under swimmers are not eligible to participate in the Bronze Championships.
