-IMPORTANT County Meet Qualifiers
June 27th
Dear Edinburgh Marlins Parents,
In preparation for the upcoming County meet, I have put together a list of all the EDM swimmers who will potentially participate in the championship meet.
Here is some general information (specially for those new to the GCSL or with first year county swimmers):
- Individual Events - The top 50 swimmers in each event, after the last meet of the season, have the opportunity to participate in the championship meet in up to 3 events (not including relays).
- Relays - Every team can send their top relay team for IM and FREE.
- In both cases above, participation is based first on rank/time and second on availability.
- Because many swimmers qualify for more than 3 individual events, when they choose their 3 county events, the rankings will change and many swimmers outside of the top 50 will be shifted up, qualifying them to participate. If your swimmer is in the top 75 or even top 100, they may still have a chance to make the championships.
As of week 5 we have the potential to send 54 swimmers to the County meet, but this number is bound to change due to final rankings and availability. Also note, the Berkshire results haven't been uploaded into County since we did the meet early.
I have created a document with those 54 swimmers, their rank, and the time the league used to rank them. It is very important that each family check for their child/children and verify that the information I put together is correct, we want to be sure that every child that has earned the opportunity to go to the championship meet can go if they choose to.
Please review the attached document in its entirety, here is a brief explanation:
- Page 1 is a matrix of all EDM county qualifiers and their events. The number under each event is that swimmer's rank in the event.
- Pages 2-7 have the individual events and each swimmer's time as posted by the league through meet #5. THIS IS WHERE YOU NEED TO VERIFY THAT THE INFORMATION IS CORRECT.
- Pages 8 & 9 list the MEDLEY and FREE relay teams.
- Page 10 shows the DATE & TIME for the championship meet.
Please check-in with me via email ([email protected]) or in person during tonight's meet. I need direct feedback on everyone of the County qualifiers with either YES (attending County meet) or NO (not attending County meet). This is very important, if I do not receive feedback on every swimmer, I will conclude that those who did not respond will NOT be attending the County meet (there is a hefty fine for each no-show at the County meet).
Congratulations to ALL the Marlins for a historic 5 WINS. Let's go for a 6th victory tonight!!!!
