TIP #1
Meets can be long. Bring food and water. Food for athletes : Peanut butter and jelly sandwich, fruit, energy bars, just to name a few.
TIP #2
Don't wear your racing suit on the bus. Just change when you get to the pool.
TIP #3
Parents - meets are long and you will wait for hours to watch a race that lasts 30 seconds or less. Learn to follow the meet program and know where your swimmer is in the line-up. Its very frustrating to miss an event after you have been waiting.
