Long Course Season / Meet Schedule
After the finish to a great short course season, we move on to the long course swimming season, where all of our meets in the spring and summer are swum in a long course or 50 meter pool rather than a short course 25 yard pool.
The first long course swim meet will be our Arena Long Course Invitational to be held April 26-28 at the Baylor School Natatorium. We will then follow that meet up with competitions at the Atlanta Classic (May 17-19 in Atlanta, GA) and the Ensworth “Officially” Summer OPEN (May 17-19 in Nashville, TN). The Atlanta Classic Meet is for selected SR/Varsity athletes only. The Ensworth meet is open to all Developmental, AG, JR, SR2, and SR/Varsity athletes. Finally, please also take notice that the scratch deadline for the Richard Quick Invitational in Auburn, AL (June 21-23) is early. This meet fills up very quickly so entries will be due early in order to secure a space in the meet for our team. It is also our year to host the CASL Bill Caulkins City Meet (July 12-13) and we will need all parents to help run this large summer league meet. The link to the spring / summer long course meet schedule is available below and, all meets for the spring / summer have also been posted on the meets-info/results page on the website.
