Congratulations to all our swimmers on a great season; each week we see improvements in both technique and time and we are proud of all your hard work. We have one more dual meet remaining at home this Saturday, July 20 - let's finish the season with a great week of practice.

Making the CHAMPS 100 roster is always a challenging process, as a reminder some of the factors that go into choosing these 100 swimmers are posted here:

Swimmers in the CHAMPS 100 will have practice July 22-25 at the Chabot Swim Club. Friday, July 26 there will be a pre-CHAMPS practice at Chabot College in Hayward - details TBD.

The entries linked below are the final entries.

Sign-in/out of this meet no later than 6pm on Monday, July 15.

The Highland Pool is located at: 41900 Palm Ave., Fremont, CA 94539.

Gates open at 6:45, warm-ups are at 7:00, and the meet begins promptly at 8:00am. The club parking lot is very small, but there is adequate parking along Palm Ave. 

This will be a 3-team meet at San Leandro High School between the Marlins, the SL Drowning Darryls, and the Seals Swim Club. Warm-ups will begin at 7:00am and the meet will begin at 8:00am. Our warm-up lanes are lanes 1-3 so look for our coaches who will be calling out the warm up groups.

With 3 teams involved the pool deck is going to be VERY crowded. We have a limited amount of deck space designated for the Marlins - see the picture below. In the zone marked "Marlins Team area" we will have two white tents setup and labeled as our shepherding tents - one for 10&under Boys, and one for 10&under girls. These are not tents for "hanging out," but rather should be used by shepherds to line up kids for their races. If your child is not getting ready to swim please keep them out of the shepherd tents.

There are two areas outside the pool deck labeled "Family area for tents" so if you'd like to bring a pop-up tent for your family please set it up outside the pool deck area per the instructions of the meet director. In the remainder of our "Marlins team area" there will some places available for deck chairs, but please be cognizant of the need for people to move easily and don't setup in such a way that blocks access.

The meet will be run in lanes 1-10 which will help to keep the meet moving quickly, but it will be important to know your swimmer's entries and to pay attention to which event is happening during the meet.

Our Marlins board and meet directors will be available to help answer questions, but please give our coaches space to coach the swimmers in the water. We look forward to all our families and swimmers representing the Chabot Marlins spirit at this exciting meet.
