UPDATED SCST practice groups, lane assignments, and practice times

REVISED 5/17/2020 9:40pm

Dear Sun Coast Family,

We want to first thank you for your understanding and patience as we continue to meet the needs of our swimmers while adhering to the limitations of social distancing at our pool facility.

Please carefully review the updated schedule for this week and the attached practice groups, lane assignments, and practice times. We have tried to make accommodations as requested but not all may have been possible. Please note we will be continuously reviewing the groups, lane assignments, and practices daily and adjustments will be ongoing. We ask if you are unable to make a practice(s) that you do your best to contact Mr. Gatton the night before so that we can plan for others to replace your assignment for that practice.

The practice for Dolphins and Otters will run 7:00pm to 8:00pm. Dolphin and Otter swimmers who swim three days a week will swim on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Dolphin and Otter swimmers who swim two days a week may swim on two of any Monday, Wednesday, or Friday.

If you are not on this list, then you will need to contact Mr. Gatton or Mr. Kennedy to determine where we have practice lane capacity.  At this time, our Shark/high school slots are full, but we ask you to contact us so we can put the swimmer in queue.  If your practice situation changes or you need to make a request for a change, please let us know as soon as possible.

Please review the following:

IMPORTANT SOCIAL DISTANCING PROCEDURES
