POOL POSITIONS

For Adult Race

 

Lap Counter: When your lane is open, wave to the Pool Coordinator to signal for the next racer. Swimmer will tell you when they are ready. No warm-up laps will be allowed.

 

Individual Timer:  Swimmer will have their name and bib number on count card. Once the swimmer is ready, raise your hand to signal to Timer Coordinator. Tell the racer's number to the Timer Coordinator. Once the timer begins, you will watch the start/stop watch and write down each lap time from the stop watch on the count card. Once on their final lap, place sign into the water as they approach the end of the lane. When they have completed their final lap STOP racer and stop watch. You will help racer out of the pool and cheer them on. Make sure to write their final time on the bottom of their count card and wave next the racer to your lane

Dismounting Bike Area:  As the biker approaches, you will need to remind the racer to dismount their bike at the "Dismount Bike" line and to walk into the transition area.
