[quote=Anonymous]The meet sheet or meet program is usually not distributed until a day or two before the meet or right before the meet, because when kids inevitably scratch events, the meet can be reseeded and empty lanes filled in, which can shorten the meet (that’s what we all want, right?). As an admin official, I see that parents understandably want the lane and heat assignments as early as possible, but I like to wait until at least 10-15 min into warmups for non championship type meets so that coaches have time to compile scratches and relay changes. The worst case scenario is that we seed the meet early, then there are numerous changes and we have to reseed the whole thing. Then kids have the wrong info on their arms and there are incorrect meet programs floating around and we have to reprint programs for all the officials and coaches and it’s a huge waste of paper and ink. For larger meets and champion meets, we can seed early and leave empty lanes for scratches. [/quote]
