- Meet Marshals must be focused on the warm up/warm down pool at all times
- There should be at least 1 Marshal, preferably 2 at the warm down pool (remember each will be responsible for an ‘L’)
- Other Marshals may patrol the locker rooms and pool venue looking for safety problems
- Once the meet has started take turns with short breaks and start rotating positions
- Do not walk together (unless a specific inspection requires a witness)
- Never have your back to the pool
- You may meet and discuss issues or concerns but face the pool at all times
- Rotating positions frequently keeps everyone alert
- Never leave the warm down pool unattended when rotating positions
- Report issues or potential issues that cannot be immediately resolved to the Meet Referee
- During the smaller meets with only 2 Meet Marshals, the Meet Marshal must notify the Meet Referee and the other Meet Marshal if they need to leave the deck (bathroom or hospitality break)
- The warm down pool can never be left unattended
