Hosted By: Knox-Area Interscholastic Swim League – KISL

Meet location: Allan Jones Intercollegiate Aquatic Center, University of Tennessee 2200 Andy Holt Avenue, Knoxville, Tennessee 37996

About the venue: Allan Jones Intercollegiate Aquatic Center: The venue contains an eight-lane (50-meter by 25-yard) competition pool. The pool can be divided by a 4-foot-wide bulkhead, to create two 25-yard pools. Starting ends have Omega - OSB11 starting blocks (28 inches above the water surface) with adjustable footrest wedge with extended platform surface and retractable backstroke wedges. The pool depth is 8 feet at each end, 9 feet in the center. There is an additional warm-up/warm-down pool which is located adjacent to the competition pool, with a minimum of two separate 25-yard warm-up / warm-down lanes available.

I need each swimmer to see me before and after each swim. Each swimmer will do a warm up and warm down before and after their heat

Seating is available for 1,284 spectators on the balcony overlooking the pool. Only coaches, athletes, officials, and other required meet personnel are permitted on the pool deck.

Locker rooms are adjacent to the pool.

The swimming pool will be configured into two eight to nine lane courses for the High School Preliminary Session, allowing the Men’s and Women’s preliminaries to be swum simultaneously in the morning. The Middle School Session will be swum on either one or two six to nine lane courses. For the High School Finals Session both Men and Women will compete on a single eight lane course.

The standard SES uniform will be worn. If you are unsure of the requirements see one of us (coaches) for details.

RULES: USA Swimming Rules and Regulations will govern the conduct of this meet and will serve as the official guide for technical and procedural rules, except where otherwise noted.

It is anticipated that the UT Team locker rooms will be open to athletes only. The host club, at its option, and in its sole discretion, shall have the ability to make changes at any time to which groups shall be allowed to use each locker room.
