Taper/Swim Meet Problem

for the past two weeks my swim club has been tapering for an important meet this saturday 2/18.. today (2/16) was suppose to be the last day of tapering for the meet. However my parents said they were too "tired" to take us. now i am getting scared because that was suppose to be the last taper practice for the meet and now that i missed it im afraid i wont perform at the speed i shouldve if i had went to practice today for saturday Will I perform well at the swim meet still? Will my performance be affected by missing practice today? I am guessing you don't have practice tomorrow then? Do a small bit of exercise to keep the muscles moving perhaps, but otherwise, the extra rest won't necessarily hurt. If you have access to a pool on your own time, maybe (MAYBE) paddle around some tomorrow. Big thing is not to stress it.
