Meet for tonight -- inclement weather pending

Hello Mallard Parents,

We will see you at The Falls at Autry Mill (9825 Autry Falls Dr) tonight at 4:30pm.  If you have last minute sickness, please call or text Coach Madison at 740-816-1881.   Our bullpen will be in the same area.  If you have to park on the street, remember to only park; please respect the "NO PARKING" signs. Please make sure you have registered for REMIND. Any updates for tonight will go out via REMIND. I've attached instructions.

Please RSVP for the ASA Divisional meet. Reminder...team dinner at CPK tomorrow.

Inclement Weather:  Today seems like a good day to review the Inclement Weather policy.  If we can at least start the meet it gives us a lot more options than if we don't start.  We can only postpone for a max of about 45 minutes, and the home team will have prepared a lot of food, so please be patient - AND BE SAFE. The Falls at Autry Mill has a large clubhouse or you can wait in your car, but please don't leave. 

From the ASA rulebook:

  • "Every effort must be made to swim each meet as scheduled.  In the event of inclement weather, each team must show up at the pool on time.  If at 5:30 the weather still precludes the meet from starting the two team representatives, two head coaches and starter will meet and decide whether to postpone or reschedule the meet." . . . "IF the meet is delayed more than 30 minutes  . . ." you can ". . . agree to delay an additional 15 minutes, OR Agree to reschedule, OR agree to a tie . . ." .  We can only agree to a tie if we actually start the meet.

Rescheduling a meet is tough - it requires really, really fast RSVP's from swimmers so please be prepared for a flurry of emails and to respond quickly if we have to postpone.

Go Mighty Mallards!
