San Diego-Imperial Swimming has released its short course 2010-2011 Winter Season Meet Schedule, which can be viewed on our Meets page. Â One meet – the Sept 25 Freestyle Festival (North) – has not yet been bid upon, so that part of the schedule may change if no club bids to host that meet during the rebid process.
USA Swimming has invited SI clubs to participate  in the Southwest regional “IM Extreme Games” to be held at the Phoenix Swim Club in Phoenix, Arizona from November 19-21.  The IM Xtreme Games promotes and rewards versatility in age group swimming by advocating greater participation and development across a range of events enabling long term success in swimming.  This short course meet will be open to age 11-14 boys and girls who meet the minimum qualifying standard of 1800 points in the IMX events.  More information is available on the IMX Games flier.
The June BC All Ages Meet for SI South Division teams has been rescheduled from it’s original date of 12-13 June to 1 week earlier – 5-6 June. Â The meet will still be hosted by CNSA and take place at the Brian Bent Memorial Aquatics Complex in Coronado.
The Bid Package for the 2010-2011 Short Course Season has been updated to include the meet format for the January 15-16, 2011 BC All Ages Meet, which was inadvertently left out of the original bid package.
Bids from SI member clubs to host 2010-2011 short course season meets are now being solicited. The 2010-2011 season bid package, containing a list of all prospective meets and meet formats, is available along with the bid application form. Bid applications must be submitted to the SI Swim Office along with proof of water statements, and are due no later than 2:30pm on Monday, May 3, 2010. Bids will be reviewed and meets awarded at a special meeting of the Program Committee on May 3rd at 8:00pm.
As a result of a pool scheduling conflict, CNSA is no longer able to host the June 12-13 BC All Ages Meet (South). Â The Program Committee is making this meet available for bid by any SI Swimming South Division team. Â Any team with an interest in hosting this meet should contact the SI Swimming Office (Judy Ortwein, 619-275-1292) or the SI Technical Chair (Dean Bailey, 619-850-2927) no later than 23 March to discuss arrangements. Â If there are no interested hosts by 24 March, the meet may be moved to an alternate date/location.
The winter (short course) season for San Diego-Imperial Swimming concludes this weekend with the JO Max Wrap-Up meets being held at Palomar College (North Division teams) and El Cajon Valley High School (South Division teams). Â These meets are designed for swimmers who have not yet achieved a SDI Junior Olympic cut in various stroke/distances. The summer swimming season begins March 13-14 with the first long course meet of the season, an A/B level meet hosted by Pacific Swim at the Poway Community Swim Center.
The meet formats for both JOMAX meets were updated today to correct typographic errors. Â For each JOMAX meet, a number of 9-10 age group events were changed to 10 & under events. Â This change will allow 8 & under swimmers to enter 100s of each stroke, the 200 IM, and participate in relay events.
The SI Program Committee has announced the results of a second round of bidding for Summer 2010 season meets. Â 4 meets were available to be hosted, and qualified bids were received for 2 of the 4 meets. The long course May 28-30 AB All Ages meet was awarded to NCA, and the short course June 12-13 BC All Ages (South) meet was awarded to CNSA. Â Because no bids were received for the April 23-25 ABC All Ages (North) meet, the committee voted to combine that meet with the April 30-May 2 ABC All Ages (South) meet and instead offer an AB All Ages meet to be hosted by CNSA. Â The other meet up for bid, a July 10-11 Senior Meet, was dropped from the schedule due to lack of interest by prospective meet hosts.

San Diego-Imperial Swimming has published the meet program, including the seeding for all events, and the estimated timeline for this weekend’s All-Star Meet between Central California, Sierra Nevada, and San Diego-Imperial swimmers. Â Each LSC has selected 48 top swimmers in the 10&Under, 11-12, and 13-14 age groups to compete in 96 individual and relay events over the two day meet. Â Warm-ups begin Saturday at 11:30 at the Loma Verde pool in Chula Vista, with the meet beginning around 1:00pm.
SI Swimming approved the 2010 Summer Meet Calendar at its Board meeting last night. The meet schedule, which is available on our Meets page, lists 4 meets for which no host team has been selected. Â Those 4 meets may or may not be held, depending upon whether a qualified meet host applies for and is approved for each meet.
At the San Diego-Imperial Swimming Bid Meeting held on 13 January 2010, four meets from the proposed 2010 long course season were not bid upon and are being sent out for reconsideration. The meets available for rebid are:
