    • 100/200s for Tsunami
  • The deadline to register for Y State is also on January 7th
    • If your swimmer is not yet eligible, but will be attending a time trial and/or our last chance meet on January 11th, they may register
    • Swimmers that are registering for this meet should make sure their USA Swimming membership is current so that our team results can be uploaded

    • All participants must have competed in 2 Y meets since March 1st, 2025
    • Each participant at Y-State should have a Concussion Awareness form signed by a parent/guardian kept on file at their YMCA. 
    • Y State is on January 24th at the King County Aquatic Center
  • January 9th will be an additional time trial day
    • Distance events: 400 IM, 500 Free, Choice of non distance event
    • Relays

    • This meet is on February 7th
    • USA Swim membership required, this is not a YMCA meet
  • No practice on January 23 - this is the day before Y State
  • We have a distance meet on Feb 8th, I am working on creating the meet file and announcement and should have that out by the end of the week.
  • There will be a Last Chance Qualifier swim meet at Stanwood on Feb 21, more info coming soon.
  • Y Regionals is on March 6-8 in Boise

The time trials will just be worked into our normal practice schedule and will just be our team. Each swimmer will have time to race 3 events and get a time. If your swimmer cannot make a time trial day, and still are ineligible for Y State and want to attend Y State, please let me know. These times can be used to enter into Y State, but no other meet. Times will not be used elsewhere, but can also be used by our coaches to plan and give feedback so everyone attending practice those days will participate.

Keep an eye on our team event page, more updates to come soon!
