Description
The two day 2016 Hudson SCM swim meet will be held at the East Woods High School in picturesque Hudson, Ohio.  The pool is a 6 lane, 25 meter pool with Kiefer non-turbulent lane markers and Daktronics Omnisport 2000 automatic timing.  The length of the competition course without a bulkhead is in compliance and is on file with USMS in accordance with articles 105.1.7 and 107.2.1.  Events on Saturday will include an 800 and 1,500 meter freestyle event.  Events swum on Saturday will be scored with events on Sunday.  We offer events on late Saturday afternoon to allow people to swim events that would otherwise be too close together on Sunday.  A stroke and distance swum on Saturday may not be repeated the next day.

2016 U.S. Masters swimming rules will govern conduct of the meet.  Because of insurance requirements, all swimmers must be registered U.S. Masters swimmers.  If not registered, swimmers can register online with USMS after the entry due date or at the meet, but swimmers must be USNS registered before swimming any events.  The USMS Release of Liability must be signed electronically during online meet entry or must be signed on paper for mailed entries.  Please send a copy of your USMS card with your mailed entry.  Relay only swimmers need only complete the entry form.  Relays are free. 

Age of competitors on December 31, 2016 will determine age group.  For relays, the age group is determined by the sum of the ages of the swimmers.  All relays can be swum with 4 women, 4 men or mixed (2 women and 2 men). 

Swimmers are limited to five individual events per day plus relays.  There is no limit to the number of relays entered.  Swimmers over entered will be removed from their last event on each day over entered. 

Heats will be formed by submitted times, regardless of age or sex and will progress from fast to slow to 'no time' and deck entries. 

Online registration is offered on ClubAssistant.com.  Online entries will close at 6 p.m. on Friday, December 4, 2016.  Paper entries must be received by the meet director by Wednesday, December 2, 2016.  Deck entries will be accepted until 8:50 a.m on Sunday, except for event 20 (400 m. freestyle).  Relays are deck entry only. 

Online entries are paid by credit card to ClubAssistant.com and your credit card will be charged by "ClubAssistant.com Event Billing" for this swim meet.  For mailed entries, make checks payable to O*H*I*O Masters Swim Club and mail to Meet Director, P.O. Box 43824, Cleveland, Ohio  44143.  Online entries are cost effective and strongly encouraged. 

A Social will be combined with the Lake Erie Annual Membership Meeting after the swim meet on Sunday about 12:30 p.m. at a location in Hudson, Ohio to be announced. 

Enter the 800 m. freestyle only if you do not plan to swim the 1,500 m. freestyle.  Swimmers who swim the 1,500 m. freestyle will be entered in the 800 m. at their request.  We will use your 800 m. split as your final time.
