Anonymous wrote:Our coach leaves it up to the swimmer to choose whether they stay for the whole thing, or come/go for their events. Older kids are more likely to stay for the whole thing, especially if they are swimming two events - they like to watch each other. Younger kids tend to come only for their event. Also we have a few families that have multiple kids swimming in different events & age groups, so they tend to come and stay for the whole thing.

Leave after free and come back for fly.
Same events for my DD and that’s our plan!
Mind sharing how close you are to the divisional pool?
We’re about 30 minutes away which is what has me debating it!
We are just 10 minutes away from the host pool so easy for us to go back and forth between the two events.

Is it like an “A meet” where kids must stay for the entire meet?
It looks like it lasts maybe 5-6 hours, is that right?
Does it follow the usual free > back > breast > fly order?
Anything else/tips to share?
This varies by team.
No team will require swimmers to be there longer than necessary.
For A meets though? The PP said their kids have to stay the entire A meet.
No, PP asked if NVSL divisionals was like A meets in terms of required attendance for the duration of the event. NVSL divisionals is not.

No. Arrive whenever breast warm up is, probably around 10 am but check with your division lead.
Thank you this is super helpful! Is there not a general warm up?
