PRACTICE TEAM MOVEMENT

We will still have 5 practice teams again this season and have changed the names to go better go with our team's name WAVE.  You can see the new group names below and also on the website under the Practice Info Tab.  For the near future we will use both names to help you remember your swimmers' new group name.  If you haven't checked to see what group your swimmer is in, please check the website under the Practice Info Tab.

REGISTRATION

Due to increasing interest in our team we have made some changes to insure the best for our swimmers.  Registration for the Spring Season will be moved to March 20th - 27th (instead of the previous stated dates) so we can see how many spots we have available for new swimmers.  Most of our groups will probably be filled and we want to make sure current swimmers have first chance to join.  But we also want to be able to let waitlisted swimmers know when we are full so they have the opportunity to find another team if they choose.

REGISTRATION PROCESS – OPENING MONDAY, March 20th, 2023 - just one week away!

1. March 20th – March 27th: All Current Members.

2. March 28th: Waitlisted swimmers will be notified of openings and be able to Register

SCHEDULE

We have also noticed that our pool space has already been getting a little crowded and wanted to make sure our current swimmers have enough space going forward.  In order to do that we are utilizing Appleton West and or East.  We are very excited for each group to be able to spread out and use the whole pool for Spring Practices!

VOLUNTEER REQUIREMENTS

The Fox Valley Wave thrives due to the combined efforts of our coaches and parent volunteers to deliver on our team mission.   To continue to succeed, it is essential that each family volunteers their time before and during home meets as needed.  Each family is expected to volunteer for a minimum of 2 slots our home swim meet to be held May 5th-6th 2022.

If you know you are unable to volunteer at the meet, opportunities to serve on the meet planning committee will be publicized and you can fulfill your requirement in this manner.  You will be required to track your time and have a board member verify your hours.  If you cannot or will not volunteer, you will be charged a $200 fee, invoiced to your account following the last meet volunteer opportunity.  

You will find additional clarification regarding these requirements as part of the registration process. Please take the time to read this section carefully, so you fully understand what the requirements are.

FUNDRAISING FEE

Fees and money raised from our meets do not meet all our budgetary requirements. For this reason, we are requiring all swimmers to pay a fundraising fee.  Fundraising requirements for Spring Season will be $25 per swimmer. These fees will be billed to each swimmer’s account on May 1st, 2022.  Participating in the Scrip program is a way to help offset the fundraising fee.

Please contact us if you have any questions.

GO WAVE!
