WEEKLY SPLASH NOTES - FEBRUARY 25, 2010 |
Well we have hit the final sprint for the finish of our swim season. We have three more workouts, and two more swim meets remaining; where did the time go? As usual, there are lots of reminders and information you will want to read below, so please take a few minutes and read on.
Blue and Gold Intersquad Meet
We had about 94 swimmers participate in this fun event. Thank you to all the parents who volunteered to help us pull it off, your help was much appreciated as always! Outside of the different relays coach Kim tried to confuse everyone with, the meet went off without a hitch. It was great to see some of our swimmers who have not competed in a meet yet swim. Everyone did a great job and I think there were a few swimmers who surprised themselves and their parents! Oh – who won you ask? Blue beat gold by 3 points, the final score was Blue 264 – Gold 261. Nice job to all of our swimmers!
CHAMPIONSHIP MEET entries due Sunday, February 28!
Our Championship Meet is Saturday, March 13. 10 and under swimmers will compete in the morning session and the 11 & older swimmers will swim in the afternoon. We will need volunteers at this meet, and we will be contacting everyone about this. In order to be competitive in this meet, we really need as many swimmers on our team to participate as possible, and we’d love for everyone to swim at least three if not all the events offered. Now, I am saying that knowing we have some of our athletes who are not legal in all strokes yet. If you know for certain that they are NOT legal in breaststroke or butterfly, do NOT enter those events, just stick to free and back; but, if you are questioning if they are legal or not in a particular stroke, please ask your child’s practice coach and they will advise you.
The registration form is attached and MUST be returned no later than February 28. Please keep in mind that when you commit, we are counting on you being there. Our club pays $15 per swimmer to participate in this event, and we do not want to pay entry fees for swimmers who are no shows.
