ASA CHAMPIONSHIPS

We will attend the ASA Championship Meet again this year at Georgia Tech, and it's back to "normal" with spectators allowed! Here is how it works...to swim in the meet, it is $35 per swimmer. Swimmers get to swim in 2 individual events and 2 relays (just like a normal meet). Our divisional championship (all the teams in our "region") will be on Thursday, June 30, at 9:30am-1PM. There is no final sessions this year, only the one session and they will combine all sessions virtually to see the ultimate winners of each event. We will be also need a few parents to help on deck and also to volunteer (more info to come).

I need your form (attached) and $35 by Wednesday, June 22 if you are going to attend the meet. You can pay with cash or go to the website and click on “shop”. For those that want to participate in the state qualifying meet, we will use this meet as the state qualifying meet. The state meet is July 22 for 10&unders and July 23 for 11&ups at Cherokee Aquatic Center, and the Sandy Springs team will have practice somewhere in the area leading up to the meet.
