Swim Team Tips


Spectator Seating

  • Bring your own chairs 
  • Meets can have 100–250 people, so seating fills up quickly 

Parking

  • Parking can be tight — arrive early for the best spots.
  • Please follow all parking instructions at away pools.

Arrival & Warm-Ups

  • Home meets: Warm-ups begin at 4:15 PM
  • Away meets: Warm-ups begin at 4:45 PM
  • Arrive early so your swimmer has plenty of time to check in and get ready.

What to Bring

  • At least 3 towels per swimmer 
  • Optional: quiet entertainment (cards, small games, etc.) for downtime between events.
  • Please write name on all items, including goggles, as many things get left behind and end up in lost & found

Where to Sit

  • Home meets:
    • Swimmers must stay by the diving team area "bullpen"
    • Parents can sit along the side of the pool or tables
    • The grass area on the far side of the pool is reserved for the visiting team
    • Mushroom pool, diving pool, playground, and splash pad are closed during meets
  • Away meets: Look for familiar team families to find your team area, information will be send prior to these meets with specific details

Timeframe

  • Meets may run until 9:00 PM, but many finish closer to 8:30 PM.
  • Events for 6 & Under swimmers are only in the first half of the meet.
    They may leave after:
    • They’ve finished all events, AND
    • Your parent volunteer shift is complete (after event #43)
  • Families with swimmers ages 7-18:
    • Do not leave when individual races are done, UNLESS:
      • Your swimmers is not in a relay at the end of the meet, AND
      • You have completed your volunteer half through the end of the meet

Staying to cheer for teammates is always encouraged — great team spirit matters!


Food & Concessions

  • CCR provides food for purchase — please leave all coolers at home.
  • We will share details about away meet concessions when available.

Please clean up after yourselves before leaving.
