Registration: Participants may enter a maximum of 6 individual events each day. Entry fees will be refundable if the meet is canceled. Registrants may instead donate refunds to the Adult Learn to Swim Program. Fees are paid by credit card to “MINNESOTA MASTERS.” Entries enabled via Club Assistant online only.

Course: 8 lane, 50 Meter pool, using 8 lanes for competition. Space in the adjacent diving well will be available throughout the meet for warm-up and cool down. The length of the competition pool, which features a bulkhead, will be measured for compliance with USMS in accordance with articles 105.1.7 and 107.2.1.
Positive Check-in: Positive check-in by 30 minutes prior to the session start will be mandatory for the 800 free on Friday, the 400 Free and 400 IM on Saturday, and the 1500 free on Sunday. Swimmers who do not confirm their entry at the meet director’s table will be scratched from those events.
Results: Results may be posted at the meet venue at the discretion of the Meet Director and unofficial real-time results will upload to Meet Mobile. Final results will be available at www.minnesotamasters.com by July 13th. Times swum by non-Minnesota LMSC members are not eligible for Minnesota LMSC records. All swimmers must be full-year USMS members.
Seeding: Event seeding and lane assignments will be developed prior to the meet and e-mailed to all registrants. Some changes in heats or lanes may occur the day of the meet. All individual events 400 meters and shorter and all relays will be seeded slow to fast. All individual events longer than 400 meters will be seeded fast to slow.
**Note: Special heat order for 800 and 1500: The heats for the 800 and 1500 will be interspersed between the 50-meter events in the same session. The first heat of the distance event will be after the first 50-meter event (all heats). The second heat of the distance event will be after the second 50-meter event (all heats), etc. If there are more than 4 heats of the 800, all will be completed before the start of the 200 IM.
Special note for 50 meter events: There will be three opportunities to swim each of the 50-meter events. Swimmers who swim more than one will, by default, have the second and third swims designated as a “time trial” which will be official, but no points will be allocated to the individual or team.
Relays: Those organizing relays may sign-up their teams by completing the online entry form by 11:59 p.m. CDT on July 4, 2022. There is no need for swimmers to indicate relay availability when registering. All swimmers on each relay must be registered with the same Workout Group if they are registered with one. Individuals not registered with a Workout Group may swim relays of people from the same Club.
