General Practice Guidelines

Swimmers should arrive approx 10 minutes prior to practice time.  If worn, swim caps and goggles should be on prior to entering the pool area.  Swimmers will wait on the pool deck. A coach will bring them in when practice begins.Swimmers should exit the pool promptly when practice is over, so as not to delay the next group's practice. Locker rooms are to be used for bathroom use only. Swimmers should shower at home and may not use River Run Club towels or gain access to other areas of the club.

Practices are held rain or shine. Practice in the pool will be canceled if there is a thunderstorm in the area, or if the air temperature is below 60 degrees F. Coaches may still have swimmers come to the pool wearing tennis shoes and warm clothing, so that dry land training activities can be done outside of the water.  An email and text message will be sent if the practice is canceled.  

Swimmers are encouraged to attend practices as often as possible for the maximum benefit.  However, there are not a specific number of practices swimmers must attend.  If you have a conflict that will take you out of practice for more than 3 days in a row (i.e. vacation, summer camp, etc), please let the coaches know so they are aware of the reason for your absence.

No parents, caretakers, siblings, etc. are allowed on deck during practice. You are welcome to watch practice from the tables directly outside of the pool deck gate. Thank you!
