Meet declaration (also known as meet sign-up) should be done as soon as possible and should only take a few minutes of your time.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

Families must declare if their swimmer(s) WILL participate in all upcoming meets. (In other words, you must sign up your swimmer for a meet in order for them to be able to swim in that meet.)

Meets are open for declarations when they are posted on our website and and all meet declarations are due by the posted deadlines.

If we do not have a meet attendance declaration for a swimmer by the deadline, we will assume the swimmer will NOT be swimming in the meet.

Late meet attendance declarations cannot be accepted.

How to Declare Meet Attendance for your Swimmer

1.  Log In - Click on that link to be brought to the login page, and log into your SwimTopia account. (You should have set up a SwimTopia account for your family when you registered your swimmer. If you do not remember your login credentials, go here).

2.  Swim Meets Page - Navigate to the Meets page, where you will see a schedule of Tiger Sharks meets. The meets will have two green buttons next to it: one for Meet Entry and one for Job Signup.

3. Sign Up Your Swimmer for the Meet - Click on the green Meet Entry button and you will see your family's meet status. You may see a request for more volunteers in the yellow box. Scroll down below the yellow box and click on the "Edit” button. (Note: If you’ve already declared your swimmer will be attending this meet, you can change his/her status by clicking the “Edit” button any time before the deadline.)

4. Select Swimmer's Meet Attendance Status - Using the drop-down menu, select your swimmer's attendance status for the meet, either "Attending" or "Not attending." (Note: if you leave your swimmer's status as "Undeclared" we will assume your swimmer will NOT be swimming in that meet.)

5. Select Event(s) For Your Swimmer (this is for USA Season, Invitational & Champs ONLY) - If you indicate that your swimmer is attending the meet, you will be presented with a list of events for which your swimmer is eligible. Select the event(s) you would like to request for your swimmer.

6. Select Swimmer's Relay Availability Status - Next, you will be prompted to indicate whether or not your swimmer will be available for relay events. Select appropriate status from the drop-down menu. If you indicate that your swimmer will be arriving late (after beginning relays), or leaving early (before late relays), a comment box will appear for you to leave an explanation.

7. Leave a Comment for the Coach - In the comment box, if you like, enter any additional comments regarding the upcoming meet that you would like the coaches to know. Click Save to save your information.

8. View Swimmer's Meet Attendance Status - Once you've clicked "Save" your family's status will be displayed. You will also be prompted again to select volunteer positions for the meet if you haven't already done so.

9. Make any Necessary Changes to Swimmer's Meet Attendance Status - If you declared that your swimmer would be attending a meet and find you must change your swimmer's meet attendance status to NOT attending, do the following:

If it is before the deadline, log into your SwimTopia account, and update your swimmer's meet attendance status for the meet by using the procedure above.

If it is after the deadline, we ask that you immediately e-mail [email protected] to notify our coaching staff so that they can make necessary adjustments.

And that's it - your swimmer is now signed up for the meet!
