A psych sheet will posted Wednesday afternoon (11/1) on our website: Please check to see that your team has been entered. Once this is posted, the only change allowed is if an entire team was somehow missed. No individual changes or substitutions. The meet format and awards will remain the same as last year, team awards for 5A, 4A, and 3-1A both girls and boys will be given. Please review relay qualification at District on the event page. This is a change from previous years. Because of the limited number of 3-1A schools with relays, all 3-1A relays that swim a verified time at District will be eligible for State, one entry per school. Each head coach will be allowed one assistant coach on deck with them in the coach area. Please provide the name of your assistant coach with your entries so that we can make them a name badge.

One coach from each team must attend. You will need to pay for entries and t-shirts before coming to the meeting. You can do this at the entrance to the meeting room. T-shirt information is coming this week. Deadline is 10/25. Everyone is asked to use the southeast door to enter the pool. Please do not have your teams use the main doors. I will let you know when teams can enter the pool area to set up, when I have that information. Warm-ups for District III will be at 12:00-12:40. Districts I, II, IV, V, and IV will warm-up from 12:40-1:20. District III must be out of the pool at 12:40. Lane assignments will be given at the coaches meeting.

Please advise your team of this policy. Thank you in advance for informing swimmers and parents. This will be strictly enforced. There will be a mandatory meeting on Saturday November 4, at 8:30 A.M. for coaches to meet Julie Hammons, IHSAA Assistant Director. Julie will explain how the 2018 Idaho High School State Swimming Championship will change from the 2017 format, and answer any questions concerning rules and sanctioning.
