High School Seniors & UVRays Alumni Scholarship Opportunity 🎓

Team Communication Support Needed

We will be sharing a Google Form link to gather information from families who speak a second language and may be willing to help with translation at swim meets, team events, or with occasional emails and team communications.

If this applies to you or someone in your family, we would greatly appreciate your support. This helps us make team information more accessible to everyone. Please take a moment to complete the form using this link, and thank you for helping strengthen our team community!

🩺 Health Reminder

Please keep swimmers home if they are feeling sick, and notify their coach of any absences (TeamReach works great). Thank you for helping keep our team healthy!
