Practice Information 
Swim Practice: Attendance and Arrival time
-
All swimmers should arrive a few minutes before the start of their assigned practice time. At the start of practice all swimmers are required to stretch and perform some dry land (push ups and sit ups). Stretching is an important part of our workout and should not be skipped. This helps prevents muscle cramps and injuries.
-
Missing practice: It is up to the parent to decide if a swimmer will attend practice or not. Attendance is not mandatory but is strongly suggested. You do not need to call or email anyone if you cannot make practice.
-
Practice on Swim Meet days: We will have normal practice schedules on days of the meets.
Communication with the coaches:
-
Please allow the coaches to focus on the swimmers while they are in the water, especially during practice. Any questions or concerns can be addressed before or after practice.
-
Email is the most efficient way to contact the coaches with any schedule changes, questions or concerns.
Swimming Equipment and Materials:
-
It is highly recommended that each swimmer have a practice suit and a meet suit. The meet suit should only be worn during the swim meets. This will help prevent wear and tear on the team suits.
-
For females: we ask that each swimmer has their hair tied back or wears a swim cap to keep hair out of their face.
-
Goggles are required and are only to cover the eyes; scuba goggles or any goggles that cover the nose are not allowed.
-
Each swimmer must have a towel for every practice.
-
Please dress in layers to practice; at times the mornings can be chilly.
-
It is a good idea to put your name on all towels, caps, goggles, and clothing.
Paperless Communication:
-
The website contain a ton of useful information, including: meet schedule, meet registrations, volunteer sign ups, meet FAQs, team apparel forms, emergency medical information, etc.
