Positive Check-in:  All Swimmers must check-in by 9:45am at the registration desk.  In order to reduce the number of open lanes and thus reduce the length of the meet, all swimmers are required to positively check-in.  Positive check-in is required for the 500 Free by 9:45 am.  Positive check-in is also required for all Group 4 individual events (200 Free, 100 Back, 50 Breast, 1000 Free, and 1650 Free).  Positive check-in for Group 4 events will be made available after the conclusion of Group 2 (100 Fly).  Check-in deadline times for these events will be announced at the meet.  Swimmers who do not positive check-in at the registration table for these events will be scratched from the event.

(Article 201.1.3B).
