reserved seating is not available. Patrons who purchase tickets should proceed directly to the pool andenter as soon as the doors open, which is 2 hours before the start of each session.

Where to Pick-Up the School Team Packets with Deck Passes
Schools can pick-up their team packet, containing the deck passes, either at the UHSAA office on the Wednesday prior (199 E. 7200 So.) or at BYU on the day of the meet. To pick-up your team packet at BYU, report to the ticket-sellers table by the entrance to the pool balcony. Passes will be issued only to those on the state roster as submitted and verified by the State Meet Director. Schools only get (3) deck passes for coaches or managers.
·            Coaches should email the names of volunteer timers                  at UHSStateswimtimer@yahoo.com. A confirmation email will be sent to the coach. We appreciate your help in filling all of the spots needed.
Passes Required for Admission to the Deck If the deck is cleared and approval is given, teams can enter the deck two hours prior to the start of the meet on the first day of the state meet and 90 minutes prior to the start of the meet on the second day.
