7/1 Barracudas Meet @ Stillwater
Hello Barracudas! Below are all the details for our last meet before the 4th of July break.
We want to emphasize behavior at meets. Officials (volunteers in white polos/khaki bottoms) are refs. They are just like a ref on a soccer field, umpires at baseball games, and refs at basketball games. If your child is exhibiting behavior that is disruptive to them or the meet, they are within their full jurisdiction to give a warning and even scratch your swimmer from the meet. Please take a moment and remind your swimmer of this.
