CHAMPIONSHIP INFORMATION APPEALS Appeals will be considered in accordance with NCAA rules. Appeals may be lodged only for errors in entries, scratches, recording of data, scoring and non-judgment errors in the application of rules. Films or videotape will not be used in the appeals process, except for the relay take-offs (see the Video Replay section of the regulations). Appeal forms may be obtained from the referee. The written statement made on the appeal form must be submitted to the referee no later than 15 minutes after the finish of the final heat/round of that event in which the appeal is applicable. The meet committee will act upon all appeals. The decision of the committee is final. (NCAA Rule 8.4.9) AWARDS An awards ceremony will be conducted immediately after the championship heat of each event (finalist for the diving event will be announced before the swimming award presentations where applicable). The top three finishers will go directly to the awards stand after they complete their event and before they begin their warm-down. The host institution may use dignitaries to present awards for the relays only. For individual events, a member of the coaching staff from the top finisher will present awards. Individuals must wear team sweat suits during the presentation of the awards. The winners must be in team warm-ups and will not be allowed to bring towels or other items to the award stand. Hats cannot be worn, unless they are a part of the official team warm-up. Media personnel will not be allowed to interview student athletes before the award ceremony. All winners must participate in the award ceremony unless they have been given an exception by the meet committee. BANNERS Only one team banner may be placed in each team s seating area. Commercial identification on the banners cannot be visible. Each institution will be responsible for placing banners in team area every session.

CHAMPIONSHIP INFORMATION FORMAT The format is a common-site men s and women s event, with each meet scored separately. Each institution may enter one relay team per relay event. For preliminaries and finals all eight lanes will be used per NCAA rule 5.1.5. During finals there shall be three heats of 8 swimmers each swum in the following order C-B-A. HEATS NCAA Rule 5.1.5. When eight lanes are available, all eight lanes should be used in preliminary heats and finals. When seeding the swimmers, intentionally leaving empty lanes between them is not permitted. HOSPITALITY There will be one Hospitality area for coaches, officials, and staff. This area will be located off the pool deck under a tent. Athlete hospitality will be located off the pool deck in the gym area reserved for massages and stretching. Signs will be posted to direct you to the appropriate hospitality areas. The hospitality areas will be open from 7:00 am to 8:00 pm on competition days. Only credentialed personnel will be permitted inside of this area. LOCKER ROOMS Visitor locker rooms are located adjacent to the deck in the natatorium lobby. MEET COMMITTEE The coaches committee shall serve as the meet committee and shall supervise the conduct of the championships, including appeals. A committee member who is directly involved in an appeal shall remove himself/herself from the committee, and the next coach in the committee rotation order shall substitute. The committee may defer any issue to the SEC staff liaison at the championship, whose decision will be final. The meet committee consists of the head coaches from Arkansas, Auburn, and Florida. The diving coaches will have a separate diving meet committee to handle the technical aspects of the diving events; however, when a situation arises that is outside the technical realm (e.g., conduct, behavior, etc.), the matter will come directly to the swim meet committee. The diving meet committee members will be from the same schools as the swim meet committee. PARKING Reserved team bus parking will be available in Lot 100D. Each team will have two parking passes for the West Campus Garage across the street from the building. Additional parking permits will be available for $5 per day for teams. Spectator parking will be available for Prelims and Finals in both Lot 104 and the West Campus Parking Garage. These are pay by space lots with first come, first serve access. Fees are $2 per hour before 5 pm and $1 per hour after 5 pm. Max Daily Rate is $15 in the West Campus Garage. This does not include pass out and re-entry. PASSES & ADMISSION Each team shall be allotted a maximum of 28 deck passes, which must be given only to individuals directly related to the team s management (e.g., coaches, managers, massage therapists, volunteer coaches, et. al.). Each pass will be labeled with the person s name and school. 10

CHAMPIONSHIP INFORMATION PSYCH SHEETS, HEAT SHEETS & RESULTS A psych sheet will be made available to all coaches at the coaches meeting before the events begin. Heat sheets will be made available to each team for all preliminary and final sessions, as well as results of each day s competition. A complete set of results shall be forwarded to each institution. RELAYS Relays will be contested as timed finals in the evening, but a time trial may be contested in the morning, if requested. If a relay is contested in the morning, that swim will constitute a time-standard trial for purposes of qualifying for NCAA championships, in as much as the morning option is not a preliminary event. A school may enter only one team in the time-standard trial. Relay time trials do not count toward the maximum number of events a swimmer may enter. A team s seed time cannot be changed by a time trial. SCORING The NCAA 24-place scoring system shall be used. Team scores will be shown on the scoreboard and updated frequently. SCRATCHES Scratches may be made only by the coach (or official team representative) by depositing scratch cards in the designated scratch box. A scratch verification form will be provided and must be used and initialed by the SEC staff liaison. All entries not scratched will become official entries. The scratch box for all swimming events shall be open two hours prior to the start of the swimming finals each evening and close one hour prior to the start of swimming finals. Only the SEC staff liaison will have access to the scratch box (i.e., sign the scratch receipts, remove the scratches from the box at the deadline, check the scratches and turn them over to the computer operator for entry into the computer). SEEDING All swimming events will be seeded according to short-course standards. In addition, the heats for the 1,650 freestyle will be seeded according to actual 1,650 yard times and will be swum slowest to fastest. The heats will alternate between men and women. The event will begin at a time in the afternoon that will ensure the next to last heats will finish by 5:00 pm. SPECTATOR SEATING Spectator seating will rotate in reverse order as team seating.

TEAM MAILBOXES Each team will have their own labeled mailbox that will be located on the pool deck near the scoring table. Heat sheets will be placed in each team mailbox immediately following the preliminary and finals competitions. 11
