have automatic timing and spectator space for 200. A bullpen will be located in a heated gymnasium.
Scratch sheets will be in the
coaches’ packets, and will be due 30 min after the start of warm up.
All swimmers must be 2003
registered swimmers with New England Swimming.
Swimmers may register with Mary Riddell, 20 Cleveland Road, Needham, Ma
02492. Age eligibility is determined by

All coaches on the deck must be registered with US Swimming and display
their coaches membership cards.
No swimmer may enter
more than five individual events per day.

expensive (according to NES policy).
Please submit an .sd3 file (LSA Team) or .cl2 (Hy-Tek Team Manager)
file. Seed cards are not required.
Email Entries: Attach the .cl2 or .sd3 file to the email
message. A zipped version of the entry
tends to work better than just attaching the regular entry file. If sending entries via email, the entry fees
and a paper copy of the entry, along with the entry cover sheet must be
received by Saturday, February 1, 2003.
Other Entries: United States Postal Service Overnight Mail
is the preferred paper mailing method.
If Overnight Mail is used, indicate that the package be delivered even
if no one is there to sign for it. No
fax entries will be accepted. All fees
must accompany the entry.
ENTRY TIMES AND VERIFICATION
All swimmers must enter with
their best times achieved from September 1, 2002 through January 28, 2003. The
meet will be strictly monitored to prevent any swimmer from entering the meet
with incorrect times. Any swimmer proven to be ineligible for an event due to
“too fast time” will be barred from the rest of the meet. If several swimmers
from one team are found to have false times entered, that team will be reported
to the Board of Review for further action and may jeopardize their participation
in future New England championships meets. No “no times” will be accepted.
Times achieved in a 25 meter
pool must be multiplied by .9049 to convert to yards.
