Week 6 Team Updates

Galen Ziegler

Hello Team! We are almost to the end! It goes by so fast. 

Updates

Rock Spring Meet Results

Such a close meet. A very fun way to end the season!

Swim Team Party – Wednesday, August 13th

Make sure you RSVP and enter a note on exactly how many people will be coming for food purposes. Some more information about the party is coming soon!

Make sure to collect your ribbons.

Some new people may not know that the swimmers get awarded for 1st-6th in individual events and 1st-3rd in relays. They also get awarded for every best time that they achieve! Those ribbons are placed in bins at the swim school labeled with their last name.

 

 

Looking ahead to the FINAL WEEK!

Practice

  • The usual practice schedule PLUS WEDNESDAY NIGHT
  • Sunday night at HCC. Mornings at HCC. 
  • No first group on Tuesday.
  • We will have a practice on Wednesday in place of the usual meet spot.

Championships

  • Please review the Meet Notice for locations, estimated times, and other important details for your planning purposes.
  • My pre-meet email is posted on the news page for reference as well. 
  • More information about exact arrival times, seating arrangements, volunteer needs, etc. will all be sent out later in the week. Mainly worried about the lineup at this stage.
  • The lineup will be submitted tomorrow. So, anything additional notes or requests will need to be emailed to me today. If your swimmer did not request anything, then they will be entered in whatever I feel they will be most successful in or have the best chance at medaling. The qualifying times change the dynamic a little bit because there is less rolling the dice on who will end up on Sunday. If you entered requests, I usually just put the swimmer in those events. They need a seed time. The only thing I usually change is if they are highly ranked in an event they did not request, I may make a change or email and ask if there was a reason.
  • Everyone should know which day they will be swimming what events. If you are coming to a session for one single event, you can always communicate with me about a separate arrival time. I will have a timeline by Thursday and can give you a separate arrival time. This becomes beneficial if your swimmer is only doing Fly or a relay and will be sitting around for 2 or 3 hours before swimming at all.
