Coach's Clipboard 2-28-21

Hello GBY Family!

Its very exciting to be able to host a swim meet again and cant wait to see how everyone does tomorrow! We have been doing really well but with a large group attending this meet and it just being one session now would be a good time to go over some reminders about staying safe during the pandemic for both tomorrow meet and for practices especially now that the YMCA is open later and swimmers can enter without the coach at the door. Here are some safety tips to go over with your kids!

1. Always wear your mask inside the YMCA until you get out of the pool and put it back on if you get out for any reason. 

2. Stay six feet apart especially when sharing a lane, or even when outside of the water on the pool deck while wearing a mask. It gets very exciting to be able to see friends and talk to them in person but we still need to stay spaced out! 

3. Coughing happens especially in the pool when swimming butterfly behind someone else swimming butterfly (swimmer joke) but remember if you need to cough to cough into your elbow.

We will still do our best to abide by the rules during this pandemic. Safety is important!

Let's do our best and swim fast! LETS GO GBY!!!!!!!!!
