Bridlewood Torpedoes 2025 Practice Guidelines

 

Swimmers are expected to attend daily practices. Exceptions are made for illness or vacations. In an effort to slow the spread of illness, please keep your child at home if exhibiting the following symptoms:

  • Diarrhea
  • Nausea or Vomiting
  • Skin rashes
  • Cough or Congestion
  • Fever
  • Sore Throat
  • Headaches

 

On occasion, if a child needs to practice at a different time due to conflicts, please discuss this with the coaches. Practice times are based on the age of the child so they can practice with their peers. 

 

Practice times will be determined upon completion of late registration.

 

We will have two Saturday morning practices on Saturday, May 17th and Saturday, May 24th. Daily morning practices will begin on Tuesday, May 27th. Practices are Tuesday - Friday mornings. This year all meets will be on Monday mornings, so we will not practice on Mondays. 

 

Swimmers must wear appropriate suits to practice. No board shorts for boys and no bikini or two pieces for girls. Please do NOT wear your team suit for practice. 

 

Swimmers must bring towel, goggles, and swim cap (if desired) that are appropriate for swimming to each practice.

 

Swimmers must stay in their assigned practice lane as given to them each day by the coaching staff, unless otherwise instructed.

 

Swimmers and siblings must stay off the half circle steps in the pool during all practice times and meets.

 

Parents or designated representative must be present for all practices for ages 10 and under.
