2023 MISCA SWIM MEET 

Online Tickets - Saturday Swimming (Pre-Order - $10.00)

• Due to the 500-person seating capacity at the Venema Aquatic Center, spectators will be limited to one (1) ticket per competing athlete in the meet on Saturday, October 7th.
• A web link will be sent to coaches to share with their team/parents, directing them to an online ticket sale. Coaches will be responsible for instructing parents not to overbuy tickets but ONLY purchase a ticket if they have an athlete competing on that day.
• When purchasing an online ticket, parents will need to register the name(s) of the participating athlete(s). The tickets will be checked against the athlete check-in list provided by the meet administrative official.
• All sales are final on the purchase of online tickets. Refunds on online tickets will not be given unless the event gets canceled. Please be responsible and honest when buying tickets.
  • For example, if a parent buys two tickets for mom and dad but only has one athlete in the meet, only 1 credential will be given out regardless of how many tickets were purchased.
  • A spectator is considered as one who buys a ticket AND associates with an athlete competing on that day.
• A QR Code will be attached to the online ticket purchase. Tickets will be emailed to the email address provided in the checkout process. Parents can print their tickets out or use a phone to display the QR Code and the ticket booth to receive their credentials.

Athlete/Coach Credentials and Check-in

• Due to the number of athletes projected to attend the competition, we will provide credentials to coaches, athletes, staff, and spectators.
• Credentials will be necessary to be on deck or in the pool balcony (spectator seating area) during the event. These credential requirements will help control the number of unnecessary bodies on the pool deck and balcony in order to comply with facility capacity limits, fire codes, and Covid concerns.

• Athletes will need to check in at the athlete check-in table to receive their deck pass for the competition.
