The Week Ahead: Please read the full email, there is a lot of key information!

Please double check your RSVP for the home meet on Monday especially if it's different then last week. If your swimmer works with Mallory and hasn't swum a meet, I will email you Monday after practice and let you know if we feel they are ready for the meet. Please email me if you have ANY questions or changes! Attending practice is the best way to build endurance and learn new strokes. Please continue to encourage your swimmer to attend!

Swimmers should wear their team suit, hair pulled back or wear a cap and use goggles for the meet.

Swim suits and caps may not be worn with the name of another swim team on them.

If your swimmer plans to race with a sun shirt on, they must wear the sun shirt at all meets and champs. This is a league rule.

Before the meet starts if your swimmers is in a freestyle relay we will organize them in an area to prepare for the relays.

Parents look at the numbers on your swimmers’ arm to be aware when their number is called to clerk of course.

Please use sunblock too! Pack multiple towels for your swimmer, sweatshirts for when the sun goes down and keep your swimmer hydrated during the meet. It will be cold when the sun goes down and you may want sweat pants for your swimmer too!

No horseplay will be tolerated at the meet.

Try to limit sweets until they have completed their races.

Ribbons will be handed out at regular practice Tuesday and regular practice Friday.

Swimmers only receive ribbons if they place in the whole event not just the heat. Swimmers will receive an improvement ribbon if they improve their time in swimming the event from meet to meet.

Have a wonderful day! Reach out to me if you have any questions! Feel free to text me if you have an emergency where your child cannot swim a meet.If you have a volunteer responsibility you must find a replacement and email: [email protected].
