NOTES: ALL events & relays for ALL age groups will be conducted as “timed

ENTRIES: As a HYCAT parent of a child (or children) entered in this swim
meet, it is the RESPONSIBILITY/OBLIGATION to work (or provide a
suitable “substitute”) at the swim meet each session that you have a
child (or children) entered/participating in the meet. The meet is
being hosted by the West Virginia LSC AND each West Virginia Swim
Team has been assigned specific jobs at the meet based upon the
number of swimmers entered in the meet.
Amy Ridenour will be making the work assignments and they will be
posted on the web site as soon as possible. If you are not assigned,
you are still responsible to work so please see Amy when you arrive
for the warm-ups for your work assignment. HYCAT/Charleston; Hunt-
ington & Logan are the “meet hosts” for this meet, HYCAT will need
to provide the following workers for the meet as listed on the next page:
HYCAT @ Charleston/work assignments
** entries
** heat sheet preparation & sales
** deck officials
** announcer
** computer system & timing console
** scoring & awards; clerk of course & runner
** lanes 3,4,5 times (6 HYCAT parents)
HYCAT @ Huntington/work assignments
** deck officials, if any
** awards; Admin Official if qualified; timing console
** parents serving as back-up timers
HYCAT @ Logan/work assignments
** back-up timing in lane #3 for Sat all day
PAGE 03
ENTRIES The remaining WV LSC clubs will supply the remaining lanes of back-
(CONT): up/manual timers & some additional Deck Officials. Since this meet
is being hosted by HYCAT @ Charleston/Huntington/Logan, there may be
additional work required for back-up/manual timing lanes. There will
be a limited “Coach/Official Hospitality” area during the meet.
Also, Swim & Tri will be at the meet on Fri evening & Sat morning
and Northwest Designs will be at the meet.
After Amy develops the work assignments, they will be posted to the
web site & e-mailed to the HYCAT members. Fulfillment of your work
assignment is critical to the smooth operation of the meet … without
the help of the HYCAT parents this meet will not be possible!! HYCAT
has the largest number of swimmers entered in the meet so it would be expected that HYCAT does the majority of the work, especially
since HYCAT is the meet host. Again, thank you!!! We “guess” that
each family will have to work approximately 2-3 hours each session.
If the swimmer's parents (or a suitable “substitute”) DOES NOT ful-
fill their work responsibility/obligation completely (this also
includes the “finals” each day), the swimmer's parents will be
“billed” at the rate of $50.00/session that the parents had a child
(or children) participating in the meet. This information was out-lined/explained on the blue registration form that the parents signed and returned to the HYCAT Swimming Office when your child joined the swimming program! If you have any questions regarding this policy/regulation, please contact Barry Martin, HYCAT Board President; OR Greg Olson, Director/Head Coach; OR any HYCAT Board Member = THANK YOU!!!

MEET Greg Olson; Chris Rogers; Cindy Hemsworth & Rob St Jean prepared the
INFO: pared the entries using the swimmer’s “life time best” meter times.
If a HYCAT swimmer HAS NEVER competed in a long course meet during
their career and/or during the 2016 HYCAT Summer Swimming Season,
the HYCAT Coaching Staff made a “best guess estimate” of what the
swimmer could do since “NT” entries are not permitted for this meet.
The “composite times” are all listed with “.99” and the end of the
swimmer’s time.
ALL swimmers may enter five (5) events per day since the meet will be conducted as “timed finals. PLEASE “check/look at” the heat sheet
when you arrive at the meet to see if Greg made any mistakes (typos)
with your event numbers. This handout IS NOT the official entries
for the meet! Also, check the club’s web page @ www.hycat.org for
the psych sheet for the meet.
The HYCAT Swimming Program will end their summer swim meet compete-
tion with this meet and have prepared to swim their VERY FASTEST
TIMES at this meet!! These swimmers that have “rested” for this
meet have the OPTION/CHOICE to participate in the swimming TRADITION
of “SHAVING DOWN” for this meet since we are “looking” for VERY,
VERY, VERY FAST SWIMMING!!!
All HYCAT “Travel/Competitive” Team coaches (Chris Rogers; Rob St
Jean & Cindy Hemsworth) will attend the meet. The HYCAT Coaching
Staff is VERY PROUD of the work that the swimmers have performed
during this summer swimming season, especially since we have been
training at Cato Park with regular” lane markers and BK flags.
HYCAT will be aiming for their 30th consecutive long course team
title and 73rd over-all WV State short course or long course team
title! We ask that ALL HYCAT swimmers wear their team bathing suit
and wear a HYCAT bathing cap at the meet! Questions??? See/talk to
any of the HYCAT Coaching Staff!
