Hello Barracudas,

We are all looking forward to meeting your kids at their first practice tomorrow. We just wanted to send out a few reminders. Please make sure to check the practice times for all of your swimmers. Girls should wear a one piece with their hair pulled back and boys should wear their jammers. All swimmers need to have goggles at practices and meets. 

Due to covid restrictions lifting slightly parents are now allowed on deck. Please remember that during practices parents are welcome to watch but please do not engage with the coaches or swimmers as it will cause a distraction. Coaches are happy to answer questions before and after practices. 

We just wanted to remind everyone that our team has no attendance requirements. We understand that your swimmers may have several other commitments throughout the week but we are happy to see them at practices and meets whenever they are able to attend. Remember, we now have a morning practice option starting in June. These practices are great for kids who are busy in the afternoon or who may want to get in an extra practice during the week. We will send out a sign up genius before the first morning practice so that you can claim your slots. Don't worry about informing the coaches regarding day to day absences but please make sure to declare your intentions for each meet before the sign up deadline this way we can ensure your child is included in the lineup. Even if your child can't make it to many practices we still encourage participation in the meets as they are lots of fun for the whole team. 

We are so excited to kick off our first season in our new pool and can't wait to get back in the water with your kids!
