Water Polo results are also posted in Past Results including All Tournament Teams.
Qualifying for Counties at Wilton YMCAPLEASE NOTE: As decided in past, when hosting FCSL Counties at Wilton YMCA: FCSL Scoring/Qualifying Rules for 8 lane pool will apply (16 places score) but 3 heats of 6 swimmers may swim per event (=18 swimmers*)
3 swimmers per team per event qualify by time swum at Divisional meet (after scratches). "A" Relay per team per relay event qualify for Counties.
*Instead of two empty lanes, two extra swimmers per event get opportunity to swim in Counties.
IMPORTANT - Mercy Rule in SwimminglyWhen using Swimmingly, make sure the Mercy Rule is set correctly - watch very short video! to find out how.
Mercy Rule means max 2 swimmers per club score in an event, next swimmer (if any) on other team gets 3rd place point. No team may score 3 places in an event.
This Rule is NOT preset in Swimmingly unless you set in a specific way. If you have problem setting it up, make third place swimmer (for team also placing 1st & 2nd) UNofficial/Exhibition so points scored will be correct.
