[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would love to see an earlier start given everyone pretty much has to take the day off anyways.[/quote]

Or another day altogether starting first thing. Maybe the July 4 Saturday or a late season Sunday. Afternoons in July you’re just asking for storms. [/quote]

What about a Sunday morning?[/quote]

This was already discussed- issue with weekend is swimmer swimming LC champs and other such meets. Would impact swimmer, volunteers and officials.

I am fine with just doing it early in the day on Wednesday. I took time off from work to get there early to volunteer and my kid didn't even get to swim. If I am going to take time off and plan to be there I at least want my kid to get the chance to swim. [/quote]

Agree that starting earlier on Wednesday is probably the best option.

The argument that there wouldn’t be enough officials to go around on Sunday is overblown IMO. There were 17 seperate Divisional relays and each had a full set of officials. Only need 1/17th of them for the ASR meet. [/quote]

The NVSL required, as a minimu, that officials be 'patched' and certified by the league to work higher meets outside of the typical Saturday morning dual meets. I'm guessing that requirement alone substanially lessens the official eligibility pool and would be another obstacle to moving toward a Sunday.

And in our division the league or division coordinator had similar requirements for Divisional Relays so I think the point that you don’t have to rely on just one group of officials when literally every division can field a competent set of officials still applies. [/quote]
