FACILITY MAP

Please be mindful of off-limits areas. These need to remain clear for the safety and consideration of the athletes and coaches. Be especially mindful of the following:

POOL DECK MAP
Couple of things to consider in regards to coach’s tables and team areas:
- Tables and popups will be provided for coaches from each team, but will be unassigned. Pick your spots each day for prelims and finals.
- Tents set up in the grass area must be taken down every night to allow for irrigation of the lawn by mandate of The City of Elk Grove. All tents not taken will be removed at close of finals.
- NO TENTS under the trellis area on the concourse. The trellis will provide you with plenty of shade.
