----------------------------------------------------------
8 & under/Mighty Marlins – 9:45-10:30 AM

All swimmers/divers should arrive at practice 5-10 minutes early so they are ready to get in the water on time. Please let the coach know ahead of time when you’re going to miss practice. Use the Coaches' Notebook, as necessary, to keep the coaches informed of your absences.  The Coaches' Notebook is found in the mailbox bin, a plastic bin just outside the guard house.  


Saturday "A" Meets

Saturday meets are Northern Virginia Swim League (NVSL) competitions for standings within our Division. These races are timed and scored.  For each meet, the Coaches assign the strokes for each swimmer, based on swimmers' seed times in each stroke.  No swimmer can swim more than two individual strokes and a relay.  The swimmers are assigned strokes for a meet based on accumulating the maximum points for the team.  

NVSL Rules strictly dictate when swimmer lists are finalized and shared with the opposing team.  If you are planning NOT to participate in a specific Saturday meet, please notify the Team Reps or Coaches no later than Tuesday before that meet. This goes for all swimmers, even if you don't think you will be asked to swim in an A meet, as sometimes swimmers pop into a meet who weren't expecting to.  

SATURDAY MEET TIMES:
• Set-up begins at 8:00 pm Friday night.
• Swimmers arrive at our pool by 8:00 AM for Home Meets.
• For Away meets we will meet at our pool at a specified time and caravan to the opponent’s pool.
• Home Team warm-ups begin at 8:00 AM
• Visitor warm-ups begin at 8:30 AM
• Officials should arrive at 8:20 AM
• Saturday Meets begin at 9:00 AM
• Meets generally end by Noon


Monday "B" Meets

FAST meets, otherwise known as B or Developmental meets, are held on Monday nights during the NVSL swim season. FAST stands for Fairfax Area Swim Teams. The goal of these meets is to provide competitive swim meets to those swimmers who have not had the opportunity to swim or to swim and be successful in the Saturday NVSL meets. Meets are not scored, and times are not official NVSL times; however, these are refereed meets designed to provide competitive conditions which are similar to the NVSL Saturday meets. Ribbons are awarded.
8 & under swimmers can swim 2 strokes (from free, back, & breast) plus FLY OR 10 & under IM.
9 & over swimmers can swim 2 strokes (free, back, breast, fly) plus the IM. An NVSL 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place winner in a particular stroke in the last seven days is not eligible to compete in that stroke in the current B meet.

Swimmers will be asked during practice on Monday what they would like to swim Monday night.  If you can’t attend practice on Monday and want to swim Monday night, notify the Coaches or Team Reps by Sunday evening either through email or the coaches’ notebook.
MONDAY MEET TIMES:
• Set-up begins at 4:00PM
• Swimmers arrive at our pool by 5:00 PM for Home Meets
• For Away Meets, arrive at the opponent's pool by 5:20 PM
• Home Team warm-ups begin 5:05 PM
• Visitor warm-ups begin 5:25 PM
• Officials should arrive by 5:30 PM
• Monday meets begin at 6:00 PM
• Meets generally end around 9:00 PM

All of this information is excerpted from the Marlins Handbook and the FAST Procedures Manual. Please refer to these documents (links below) for more details.


Team Suits

There will be suits available in each size at the Ice Cream Social as well as other spirit items. Team suits are not mandatory for participation in team events. This year’s swimsuit is new -- it is a blue suit called Mighty Python. If you are unable to attend the Ice Cream Social and/or need to try a suit on, they are available at Suit Up in the University Mall.  Just ask for the Lakeview Team Suit.   Suit Up's phone number is 703-278-8202.
