Attendance

Swimmers are not required to attend all practices, but are expected to attend as many as they can. Coaches emphasize consistent, full attendance at practices and meets for skill development. Please attend as many practices and meets as possible.

 

 

 

 

Practice Groups

 

After registration, coaches will place swimmers into a practice group based on speed, ability, and motivation. Groups are loosely based on freestyle times: 50 Freestyle (9 & up swimmers) and 25 Freestyle (8 & Under swimmers), but will also take into account age, ability level and motivation. 

 

Placements will use freestyle times from the previous MSL season. Swimmers without a recorded time will be evaluated during Splash Days and then assigned a group.

 

If a swimmer has a recent USA Swimming 50 freestyle time, please send it to the coaches.

 

 

⏱️ Fast Friday, March 6

 

During the first Friday practice of the season, swimmers will have the opportunity to improve their 25 or 50 freestyle time. As swimmers grow and improve throughout the season, they may move up practice groups with coach approval.
