New Time Drops System

RMEA will be using the Time Drops timing system for the first time tomorrow evening. PCHM is implementing this system this season as well, so we’re all learning together. RMEA has been testing the system as much as possible in preparation for the meet, and we’re hopeful for a smooth experience.

With that in mind, we do ask for a little extra grace and patience from all swimmers and families as we work through this new process together.

You may notice that there are currently no combined events on the heat sheet. At minimum, Events 21 and 22 will be combined to ensure no swimmer swims alone. Otherwise, RMEA plans to run the meet mostly as written, since they are still learning the backend functionality of Time Drops and want to avoid making too many live changes during the meet. They will also have updated, notated heat sheets available tomorrow.

While this may make the meet run a bit longer than usual (as is common for the first meet), the goal is still to run an efficient, organized, and enjoyable event for everyone.

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out.

We look forward to seeing everyone tomorrow!

Fear the Fin,
The PCHM Swim Team Board
