Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

I missed the closing cut off date/time can I request a late entry?
Late entries are not permitted at SMNE meets regardless of the circumstance.

My swimmer doesn’t have the required QT can we still enter under a manual time?
Manual entries are not accepted for Summer Champs, Winter Champs or the 200IM at the Speedo 13U Sprint meet.  There is no QT required to enter the 50m & 100m events at Speedo Sprints 13/U meet.   If your coach has determined you are suitable for the MNE Distance meet you may discuss options with your coach who may get in touch with me for manual entry consideration.

When will the timeline be published?
After the meet has closed.  It is impossible to predict the time of an event prior to the meet closing as timing always depends on how many people enter a particular event.  The timeline is a guideline only and subject to change.
