Guidance For Completing Open Meet Entry Forms.

Your child may receive a form for you to complete to enter an Open Meet.

This forms needs to be completed in its entirety otherwise the entry may not be processed.

Here is some guidance to help you with finding the information you may require to enter on the form.

ASA Number

The ASA number for your child can be found on the ASA website, go to http://www.swimmingresults.org/events/biogs/biogindex.php and search under your surname.

Qualifying Time

Normally the Open Meets qualifying times will be printed on the back of the entry form, depending on the meet level these times may be minimum qualifying times or upper cut of times this is made clear in the organiser’s information. It is your responsibility to indicate your Childs qualifying (PB) time for each event they intend to enter.

Times can be found in a number of ways.

A) If your child has swum in a competition for the club or at time trials the times achieved are always displayed on the notice board at Whitgift Pool, you should keep a note of the times achieved, and their Personal Best Time (PB).

B) If your child has previously swam in a licensed meet, follow the step to find ASA Number then double click on the ASA number to see your Childs current ASA ranking times. From this page you can then list historical times by clicking on the “click for history button” that is in the top left hand corner of the displayed time grid. From the displayed historical page if you click on the individual stroke/distance all historical times for that stroke will be displayed.

C) If your child does not have qualifying times speak to their squad coach.

Returned No Later Than

The entry form will indicate a date to return the form by, this is the very latest date that entry forms will be accepted for processing, please try and return forms earlier than this date. The date may be well before the official meet closing date and this is to allow us adequate time to process the entries.

Entry Fees
Payment by cheque should be made to Cleethorpes & District Swimming Club or CADS

Entry forms will not be processed if the entry fee does not accompany the form.

If you receive entry forms for a number of meets please submit separate cheques for each meet.

Please do not include any other payments in your entry cheque.

If you have more than one child entering the same meet a single cheque to cover that meet is acceptable.
