Heat Sheets Prelims and Finals (being posted on host club website)

  • Warm-up and Meet Format
    • Friday & Saturday Warm Ups 9:00am with Meet Start 10:30am.  Sunday Warm Ups 8:30am with Meet Start 10:00am. Opening times for pace and sprint lanes will be determined at the Coaches' Meeting.  UGA will be practicing on Friday and Saturday morning up until the beginning of warm-up.  The Georgia staff have asked that swimmers, coaches, and officials stay off the deck until the team is finished and out of the pool.
    • Men and Women will compete in separate pools for prelims.  Because of this setup, we will not alternate heats of the 400 IM and 500 Free.  They will be seeded as stated in the meet information, but will be swum in their respective pools.
    • The 1000 and 1650 Free are mixed events, but will be swum in separate pools.  Some heats of the 1000 may be moved to the 1650 pool after the mile is finished.  We will determine which events will swim where and whether any heats of 1000s will go to the mile pool after check-in on Saturday night.  We will provide heat sheets and timelines for planning purposes once these events are seeded.
    • The Senior Committee has determined that backstroke ledges cannot be used in the morning, but will be available for swimmers to use at night (this includes the 400 Medley Relays).  They will also be an option for any time trials.
    • There will be no ready room or walk outs at finals.  Swimmers in the top heat will be announced behind the blocks.
  • Parking and Logistics
    • Parking is available on Friday in the East Campus Deck.  The cost is $5.00 (we recommend having cash) for the entire day.  Parking on Saturday and Sunday is free.
    • In the interest of keeping a clear deck, swimmers are asked to set up team areas in the stands.  Swimmers may, of course, bring towels, parkas, water bottles, etc. down to the deck, but we ask that they keep bags, coolers and other bulky items in the stands.

All towels will be donated by SWAT to The Gateway Center, just a few miles away from Georgia Tech, which offers free showers, housing and critical social services to men, women and children experiencing homelessness. A large percentage of those served are our veterans who are helped by the Veteran’s Programs at Gateway in collaboration with the U.S Department of Veterans Affairs.

Gateway Center is open 24 hours a day and helps our veterans with emergency housing, mental health services, and access to programs to help them rebuild their lives.

Athens Fall Classic Meet Updates

ABSC (Meet Host) will be splitting boys and girls up in a slightly different fashion to ensure that neither competition course runs too long.  Senior Girls and 12 & Under Boys will be in Pool A (beside the diving well) while Senior Boys and 12 & Under Girls will be in Pool B (under the observation deck).    

  • Parking: Parking is available in the Ramsey Center Surface lots and deck and lot E-03 (click here for maps and further information).  Please note on Sunday that part of the course for the Athens Half Marathon goes by the Ramsey Center.  Significant numbers of runners will be passing by the pool during the race, which means access to the pool may be limited on Sunday morning between 8:00 am and 9:15 am.  Cars that are inside the Ramsey Loop by 8:00 am should not have a problem getting in, but those who are late may experience longer delays than normal.
