Understanding the Software

What is Swim TeamManagement Software?

Swim team management software helps coaches organize their team, track athlete performance, and prepare for swim meets — all in one place. It replaces spreadsheets, paper rosters, and manual calculations with automated tools designed specifically for competitive swimming.

Roster Management

Keep track of every swimmer on your team — their contact info, grade, events they swim, and personal best times. No more scattered spreadsheets or outdated paper lists.

Time Tracking

Record and track swim times from practices, time trials, and competitions. See personal bests, track improvement over the season, and identify which swimmers are ready for faster events.

Meet Entries & Seeding

Create meet entries, assign swimmers to events, and seed heats automatically based on entry times. Export files in standard formats (HY3, SD3) that meet hosts accept.

Why Do Coaches Need This Software?

High school and club swim coaches juggle dozens of responsibilities — managing rosters with 30-100+ athletes, tracking times across multiple events, preparing entries for dual meets, invitationals, and championships.

Without dedicated software, coaches resort to complex spreadsheets, handwritten records, and hours of manual data entry. Swim team management software automates these tasks so coaches can focus on what matters: coaching swimmers.
