Pool Deck Nickname

Introducing Pool Deck Nicknames: A Quick & Easy Way to Identify Who’s Huddled In Your Meet!

We’ve introduced a new feature to make meet management even smoother—Pool Deck Nicknames! When selecting your role (scorekeeper, timer, judge, or starter) in the Swimmingly App, you’ll now be prompted to enter a Pool Deck Nickname before joining the huddle. This helps the Scorekeeper easily identify who is huddled in for the meet.

How It Works:

  1. Enter a Pool Deck Nickname – Since this is visible to the Scorekeeper, we recommend using your first name or a short, easily identifiable nickname.

  2. Join the Huddle – Your nickname will be visible to the Scorekeeper when they tap the info icon (ⓘ) while the QR code is displayed during the initial huddle. They can also view nicknames to see who is huddled in for which role during the meet by tapping the people icon in the top left corner of the app.
