First Week of Swim Team Practice!
What a GREAT first week of swim team practices! The coaches did a fantastic job of organizing the practices this past week and getting to know all of our swimmers! Each day they focused on a different stroke and have said how much our swimmer have already learned! Looking forward to another great week this week!
This Week: Afternoon practices as usual on Monday and Tuesday. No practice on Wednesday. Thursday and Friday will be morning practices 9:00-9:45 for 5-8 year old and 9:45-10:30 for 9 and ups! The Junior Team will start their practices after Memorial Day.
Practice Reminders: Please make sure that you stay at practice with your swimmers (or you have a friend that can watch them for you if you need to run an errand or something). Also, siblings are welcome to be in the pool during practices but only in the zero entry end of the pool and only to the step. It gets very distracting to the coaches and those swimmers that are practicing if there are other kids swimming around in the pool. We also don't have lifeguards at the pool during this time on most days so that just helps keep everyone safe as well.
RSVP for the Meets!! Our first meet will be here before we know it so please go ahead and RSVP so we know if your swimmer will be there! We HAVE to know if your swimmer will be swimming so we can make the lineup for the meet. Most people already know their schedules for all of June so if you do, please just RSVP for all the meets at one time! We will also be reaching out to ask you to volunteer during our meets. If you have a specific job you have done in the past that you enjoy (like announcer, scorekeeper, starter, etc...) that takes a more experienced volunteer please let us know!! You can RSVP by visiting our website. I will also be sending a separate email to everyone that has not yet rsvp'd so you can just click on the link. https://hamptonwoods.swim-team.us
Please don't hesitate to let us know if you have any questions!
Thanks!
Emily & Gina
