What are templates and why do the meets have them?
There are two main templates/ schedules of events for Summer Swim Meets - Templates A & B. This allows swim meets to be run in a timely manner as not all events are offered at every meet. Some swimmers may wish to consider which template is being run, when choosing which meets to attend. A swimmer may only participate in three individual events at any given meet and the coaches will choose which. (Note, relays would be in additon to the three individual events, and also chosen by the coaches).
Only the Provincial Meet runs a full schedule and allows the swimmers to choose events but more on that later!
