SCRATCH PENELTY: No penalty for scratching on the block with the exception of deck seeded events.
 Deck Seeded Events: Any swimmer entered in a deck seeded event that has checked in for the event must swim the event
unless he/she notifies the meet referee before the seeding has begun that he/she wishes to scratch. Failure to do so will
result in the swimmer being removed from his/her next individual event in which he/she is entered in on the next day of
the meet.
 Prelims: No penalty for scratching on the block in prelims with the exception of deck seeded events. Any swimmer entered
in a deck seeded event that has checked in for the event must swim the event unless he/she notifies the meet referee of an
injury or illness that prevents them from swimming the event. Failure to do so will result in the swimmer being removed
from his/her next individual event in which he/she is entered in on the next day of the meet.
 Finals: Any swimmer who competes in a preliminary heat and qualifies as one of the finalists, as originally seeded, must
swim in that events final; or must notify the scratch table that he/she intends to scratch from that final's event, within 30
minutes of the announcement of the qualifiers. Swimmers may “declare their intention to scratch” within 30 minutes of
the announcement of the qualifiers. This means that they must make their final decision within 30 minutes of their last
prelim event of the day. Any swimmer seeded in a final who fails to swim that event will be removed from the rest of the
meet unless excused by the meet referee because of illness or injury. A swimmer not originally qualified for finals who is
seeded into a final due to the scratch of another swimmer will not be penalized for failing to swim in that final.
 Scratches must be done individually. “Team” scratches will not be accepted.
