Volunteers: We are required to provide volunteers for the Sunday morning session. I have created shifts like a typical meet. If these shifts do not get filled, I will assign them.

Officials: Officials interested in working at the Invitational should email the meet referee, Todd Johnson, at [email protected]. Please include a short description of your experience.

ARRIVAL/PARKING/TENT SET-UP:

• Doors for our Volunteers and Officials will open at 6 AM; Doors to the public will be open at 6:20 AM. Please do not bang on the doors if you see others inside. Aquatics have been directed to open at designated times.
• Upon Arrival, please be sure coaches check in. ALL COACHES MUST HAVE NWAL BADGE AND PICTURE ID. We apologize if this is an inconvenience, but we do not know all the coaches in the NWAL league. Be prepared in case one of our regular folks isn’t at the check-in table and requests an ID because they don’t know you.
• The small parking lot in the front of the venue is for officials and volunteers and those with special needs. Please be courteous and allow those parking spaces to be available
• Per CyFair ISD – tent set up is not allowed on the grassy areas next to the natatorium. Tents must have a drive lane between the venue and the tent set up.

SEATING:

• As always, we will reserve the first portion of the spectator seating directly across from the diving well for swimmers to be able to set up inside rather than staying outside. Swimmers must bring towels and shoes to the deck to go up in the lobby or seating area. This rule shall be enforced for the safety of everyone as the floors get very slippery when they are wet.
• NO STADIUM SEATS ALLOWED IN THE COME-AND-GO-SEATING AREA directly across from the Competition Pool. This section is to watch their swimmer race, then move out of the area to allow other parents the opportunity to watch their swimmer. Any parents found to not adhere to this policy, will be asked to relocate. This section will be roped off until 10 minutes before the start of the session. No sitting in this section until we open the section up for come-and-go seating only.
• Swimmers are to sit in bleachers on deck or in the first section of spectator seating across from the dive well or outside. There are to be no swimmer chairs or seating at the competition pool. This area is for coaches only and to allow for a walkway through the venue. Limit of one chair per coach on deck please. 

INCLEMENT WEATHER:

During inclement weather, the meet will continue as the CyFair natatorium pool is grounded. Spectators will be asked to relocate to vehicles outside the facility to allow swimmers, coaches, and meet personnel to remain indoors and to continue with the meet. 

Concessions: Concessions will be available
