Barracudas!

Hope you are enjoying this beautiful Sunday afternoon!  WOW!  What a great Mock Meet on Saturday!  We had so much fun watching you all swim and are so proud of all of you!! Hopefully you all had fun too! Shout outs to all our swimmers, especially those that tried a new stroke or new event!  You should be so proud of your accomplishments!!!  And Parents/Volunteers - THANK YOU! for all you did to help the meet run so smoothly!!!!  The results are attached, but here is a summary of the meet:

• 82 swimmers
• 236 swims
• 172 time drops - 70% of all times were faster than the entry time...that's amazing!!!!

This week will be our last week of evening practices, and Monday's practice will be 'Fun Day Monday'! In addition to having fun, Coaches will provide developmental feedback to swimmers on how they did in the meet. This week we will focus on further development of our freestyle and backstroke, and we may introduce elements of breaststroke. We will also work on starts, turns and finishes. Monday and Wednesday will again be returning 8 & Under swimmers; Tuesday and Thursday will be new 8 & Under swimmers. 

Due to several practice cancellations last week, we have extended the 'try-out period' to Thursday 6/15. If your swimmer(s) cannot swim the length the pool without assistance, we will need to remove them from the roster and refunds will be issued. This is purely for safety reasons, and we appreciate your understanding and acceptance of this policy. Coach Dean will reach out to those impacted.

Our next meet is scheduled this Saturday 6/17 @ 8:30am against Chase Creek.  The meet start time is 8:30 so warm-ups will be sometime around 7:30am, but we will confirm when we send out the heat sheets later in the week. The Meet Sign-up is now open, so please declare if your swimmer(s) is going to attend, and pick the events you would like to swim. Remember - if you don't tell us you will attend, we will not put your swimmers in the meet. Coaches will make all final decisions.  The Meet Sign-up will close Thursday @ 3pm to allow the Coaches time to finish the line-up. Parents - the Volunteer Sign-up is also now open for the Chase Creek meet. 

For your convenience, we have now opened up the Meet Sign-ups for all of the remaining dual-meets.  Each Meet Sign-up will close Thursday @ 3pm.  

Please reach out with any questions. Have a great rest of your weekend!

Coaches Aidan, Camryn and Dean
