Hi Parents!

As you know, we have our first meet of the season this week at the Northwest Family YMCA. Everyone planning to participate in this Saturday's swim meet must have their entries in by TOMORROW. I understand we have a lot of newcomers who may not know how to do this, so please see the guide below.

To do this: 

1) Parents are supposed to click on the 'Meets & Events' tab on the Swimtopia home page. After you click on Meets & Events', click on the 'Calendar' tab, then click 'Meet Entry’ to declare their child for the relevant meet (Wahoos VS. Flyers and Villages - October 24, 2026). 

2) Once parents click on ‘Meet Entry’, click ‘Edit’ under their child's 'Meet Status' and select ‘Attending this meet’ or ‘Not attending this meet’. Even if your child can't attend, please mark them as ‘Not attending this meet’.

3) Once parents have determined that a swimmer is attending the meet, swimmers can select up to four individual events to participate in and click ‘Save’ to submit the events. Please be aware that the edits to your swimmer's events WILL be made by coaches, meaning your child may not compete in all the events that they’ve selected on Swimtopia. 

4) Once you successfully declare your child’s attendance and entries, your page should state that ‘Meet entries were saved successfully’.

If you have any issues with navigating this, please let the coaching staff know ASAP, since the deadline is TOMORROW.
