Best Answer

In competitive swimming events, the official pool rules for scratch typically involve notifying the meet officials before the event starts if a swimmer is unable to compete. This allows for adjustments to be made to the event lineup. Swimmers who scratch from an event after it has started may face penalties or disqualification.
