IMPORTANT HIGH SCHOOL SWIMMER INFO:

The Connecticut Interscholastic Athletic Conference (CIAC) serves as the sole

governing body for interscholastic athletic activities in Connecticut. Prior to the

start of the season, you, your swimmer, and your coach should have a discussion

about their rules regarding Club participation during High School swim season.

CIAC rules states: Participation in “Outside” Meets – Swimmers of member schools

may participate as “unattached” individuals (not representing the school or outside

team), in a maximum of four (4) "outside" meets per season (AAU, U.S., Boys and Girls

Clubs, YMCA, etc.). Choice of such outside meets to be made by swimmers with

approval of the swimmer’s school administration. Present weekly swimming limitations

will be maintained, one of which may be one of the four allowable “outside” meets.
