Entries:

In accordance with NJS policy, team entries may be submitted by e-mail to rhundl@live.com   (please use Tiger Challenge 2009 in subject line).  All entries must be Hy-Tek program entries either on a 3˝" diskette or as an e-mail file attachment.

  • The meet entry coordinator will respond to e-mail entries within 48 hours.  If you do not receive an e-mail response within 48 hours, assume that your e-mail has not been received. It then becomes the sender’s responsibility to make sure that the host club’s meet entry coordinator receives the e-mail.  If you do not receive an e-mail response, you must contact the entry coordinator by e-mail or phone, or mail your entries.
  • An Entry Summary with a signed NJS waiver and a check must accompany or follow each mailed entry.
  • The host club has the right to scratch swimmers/teams if entry fees and waivers are not received prior to the start of the meet.
  • Incomplete entries will not be accepted.
  • Deck entries will not be accepted.
  • In order to provide the most “splash” opportunities, upon receipt of entries, the host team will allow all teams 5 days to “pre-meet scratch” (reduce their entries). This “pre-meet scratch” procedure is meant to allow additional teams into the meet based upon “entered” teams being “good citizens” and adjusting their entries based upon knowledge of swimmers non-attendance post entries received by the meet host.  Room created by this procedure will be filled by entries received by “closed out teams” in the order the entries were received.

Meet Format Waiver:

The host club has the right to change the format of the meet with the approval of the sanctioning chairman and age group or senior chairman.  These changes would be made for a more efficient swim meet for the swimmers and the host club.  A reason for change would be:

  • To conform to facility capacity, there will be no more than 350 swimmers per session.
  • To allow more swimmers to swim.
