TIME TRIALS RESULTS

Great job at time trials!  For the first time EVER, every swimmer who was not at the meet let me know they weren't coming except 1!  Let's keep up the great work!  Thank you parents!!  I have attached the times from time trials for you to see.  I tried to fix any errors that I saw (and I went heat by heat, so hopefully I caught them all!), but if you see something that you think is incorrect for your child, please let me know and I will check into it.

 

MEET DOS AND DON'TS

The good thing about time trials is that we get to work out the kinks before our first real meet!  You all did a great job--from the volunteers, to the spectators, to the swimmers.  I still have no voice, but other than that, it was smooth.  There are only 2 things I want to make sure everyone is clear about.  First, if your child is sick on the day of the meet, please call/text/email me instead of using the RSVP function on the website.  The RSVP function is awesome and I hope everyone uses it, but for changes the day of the meet, I really need to know ASAP and I can't check the RSVP list all the time all day.  Second, please make sure your child is finished swimming and doesn't have another event before you leave the meet.  NEW THIS YEAR: If you are leaving the meet prior to the free relays (last event for all but 6&unders who finish earlier), you must check with Coach Julie to make sure your child isn't needed for a relay.  Thanks so much!!

 

SCHEDULE THIS WEEK

We do NOT have practice on Monday due to the Memorial Day holiday.  We start our regular practice schedule (below) on Tuesday morning.  The only day that is different will be Wednesday mornings (day after the meet) when we have our "fun practice" where swimmers get their ribbons and donuts and get to play in celebration of having a great meet.  On Wednesday mornings, all kids 10& younger will practice from 9-10AM.  Wednesday evenings will be normal practice, but ribbons will be available to pick up at evening practices.

Age Group	Morning Practice Mark Trail (M-F)	Evening Practice Princeton Square (M, W, Thurs)
7-10	8:30am-9:30am	6:00 - 6:45 pm
6 and under	9:30 -10:00 am	5:30- 6:00 pm
11 and up	10:00 - 11:00 am	6:45-7:30

Swim meet on Tuesday at Mark Trail-swimmers arrive at 4:45PM.  The meet starts at 6 (time change from original schedule), but we have first warm-ups, so we really need everyone there on time.  After the meet, everyone is invited to Willy's Mexicana Grill (6309 Roswell Rd).  They have agreed to stay open late (10:30) for us!

Team pictures on Thursday at 5:15PM at Princeton Square.  Please wear your team suit and your team t-shirt.  You will be able to purchase individual pictures and/or team pictures that night.

 

CLINICS AND LESSONS

As in years past, we will have clinics from 11:05-11:30AM Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays each week at Mark Trail.  It is $5 per swimmer and must be paid to the coach leading each clinic on the day of.  The clinics will vary each day (all strokes and diving).  There will be a sign-up sheet on the bulletin board at Mark Trail that will be put up on Monday mornings (Tuesday this week).  For this first week of morning practices, we will do clinics everyday, with Tuesday being just for diving.  

Some of our assistant coaches also offer private lessons for your swimmers and/or younger children/friends/neighbors.  Coach Kevin's info is below, and I will pass on others as soon as I get it.  You can talk to him at practice or contact him to set up lessons.
