KSHSAA SWIMMING & DIVING MANUAL AND HY-TEK TEAM MANAGER INFO
An online copy of the manual may be accessed on the public KSHSAA Swimming & Diving Homepage. When setting up your school in the Hy-Tek Team Manager ™ Software, PLEASE USE THE ASSIGNED KSHSAA TEAM ABBREVIATION as listed on page 23 in the manual. Also, input in TM athletes’ grade levels (SR, JR, SO, FR).

REGULAR SEASON MEET OFFICIALS
Host schools of regular season meets are strongly encouraged to utilize USA Swimming & Diving Certified Officials and have a minimum of two officials on deck during swimming competitions. Utilizing officials who are knowledgeable of current rules and practices ensures a safe competition environment and prepares participants consistently across the state for how the KSHSAA State Swimming & Diving Championships will be officiated.

REGULAR SEASON MEET RESULTS & TOP TWENTY-FIVE LINKS
There is a link on the KSHSAA Swim & Dive Website for this season’s meet results from around the state. Please submit final meet results throughout the season by emailing PDF copies to rgarman@kshsaa.org. All meet results submitted will be posted. Be sure to include diving results and note if it was a six-dive or eleven-dive competition.

From the Regular Season Meet Results submitted to the KSHSAA, a “Top Twenty-Five” Performance List will be compiled for each event in class 6A and 5-1A. These lists will be updated periodically throughout the season, so be sure to send in all regular season meet results. A link to the “Top Twenty-Five” lists can be found on the KSHSAA Swimming & Diving Website and will go live once the first “Top Twenty-Five” lists are posted.

Starts With Me

With competitions beginning this week, please be sure to always be positive and professional. The KSHSAA places top priority on sportsmanship! It is imperative that coaches and officials willingly accept the responsibility of being positive role models. The ethics, integrity, and sportsmanship exhibited by adults have a profound effect on the young people who participate. #STARTSWITHME

NFHS POINT OF EMPHASIS: Participant and Spectator Unsporting Conduct
The 2023 NFHS Swimming and Diving Questionnaire revealed a dramatic increase of profanity on the deck. Coaches and competitors are reminded of rule provisions prohibiting this kind of behavior. Under Rule 3-6-1, unsporting conduct includes, but is not limited to, making insulting or derogatory remarks, gestures or acts including taunting, trying to influence, showing disgust, or interfering with an official. The meet referee always retains the authority under Rule 3-6-1 to disqualify a competitor for any act the referee deems as unsporting conduct. Per Rule 3-6-2, unacceptable conduct includes, but is not limited to, the use of profanity whether or not it is directed at another person, or any action which could discredit the individual or the individual’s high school. Team personnel shall be disqualified from that event or the next event in which the competitor is entered, whichever is appropriate.
