GENERAL
“B” Meets are held on Monday evenings and they are designed to give developing swimmers a chance to compete and improve their skills. “B” Meets are not NVSL sanctioned and are not scored meets. There are no relay events at “B” Meets. Ribbons are awarded to every swimmer. Swimmers are encouraged to sign up for events on Monday morning after practice. Swimmers may also sign up for events on Monday evening prior to the beginning of the meet. “B” Meets begin at 6:00 pm with visitor team warm-ups beginning at 5:30 pm.
EVENTS
Events are the same as in “A” Meets, with the addition of a 6 & Under age group in the Freestyle and Backstroke events. Also in “B” Meets, the 13-14 and 15-18 age groups are combined into one event. Finally, Individual Medley (“IM”) events are added for 10 & Under, 11-12, 13-14 and 15-18 age groups. There are usually multiple heats of each event for younger swimmers.
“B” MEET PARTICIPATION POLICY
Swimmers can enter no more than two events in a meet, plus the IM (25 meters each of butterfly, back, breast, and free style).
A swimmer is eligible to swim any event in a “B” Meet except an event for which the swimmer earned a first, second or third place in the immediately preceding “A” Meet. All 8 & Under swimmers must get approval from their coach prior to swimming events other than the freestyle.
