The Cobb County Summer League asked that we forward this information to our team families.  The WAVES will not be part of this, but your swimmer may participate as an individual.  If you have any specific questions, please email: [email protected]

The Georgia Games Swim Meet, held at the Central Cobb Aquatic Center, is in one week. This is a fun meet and we encourage new and veteran swimmers to attend. This is terrific experience for a ‘big’ meet since Georgia Games will use an electronic in-deck timing system with 10-lane scoreboard and swimmers will use starting blocks for individual and relay starts. All meet participants receive a t-shirt and top 3 finishers in each event receive a medal that looks like an Olympic gold, silver, or bronze medal. This is a quick swim meet and it should last no longer than 3 hours. Your swimmer may register online for up to 4 individual events. Meet organizers plan to put relays together the afternoon of the meet. Following is basic information about the meet:
