Meet Maestro Accounts – Quick Start Guide for Virtual Meets and USA Swimming

Tracy Nelson
  • Updated

Meet Maestro is SwimTopia's swim meet software that's been used by teams around the country to run hundreds of virtual meets this summer, and thousands of meets since 2018.  No meet management software experience is necessary. You’ll be up and running in no time!

“We have been using Meet Maestro to run our summer swim meets and have found the system to be truly intuitive. Our volunteers just sit down and get right to work with minimal direction from me.”

~ Heather U., Copperfield Dolphins

There are several ways to create a new meet:

If you're setting up meets in the Speedo Swim Again Virtual Series, your Meet Maestro account comes pre-loaded with meet templates for each meet in that series.

Add some excitement to your meet by inviting other teams to compete head-to-head, from the safety of their own pool.  And with Meet Maestro being free in 2020, it's never been easier to create a friendly competition!
