Meet Entries and Respect on the Deck
Waves swimmers and families, if you are still showing a NT in an event your child wants to swim please respond to this email with their event and they will be added. There will be a binder at the pool today after 5:00 with all swimmers and their entries for this Saturday's meet. Please review the entries and mark any corrections or changes. If you are not available for relays - please be sure and sign the no relay sheet as well. Again please do not ask to be on a relay, coaches will determine all realys. Relays will be posted on Friday afternoon at the pool. I will also be at the pool on and off today from 5:00-8:00 if you have any questions. Thank you again to all who have been patient with logins and meet entries. If you are still having problems with your login 1. Try using waves2015 as the password, it seems to be a default, if that doesn't work 2. try entering your email address and checking forgot password.
Parents, yesterday we had some trouble with a few of the age groups and the lack of respect they are showing to our coaches. While we know school is winding down and kids are getting antsy, we ask that you remind your swimmers that the pool and the pool deck are a classroom for swimmers and the coaches are their teachers. With large age groups like 7/8 it is sometimes difficult to give and hear instructions. We want the kids to have fun, but they need to also respect the coach's time, and their teammates time as well. If you could please discuss this with your swimmers before their next practice (today or their next) I would greatly appreciate it. We need our swimmers listening to instructions, as well as maintaining safety!
Look for an email from Coach Spoon about opportunities to have your swimmers evaluated. Both Coach Spoon and Lindsay have offered to give some time during a few practices for you to video your swimmer, and review with a coach. Details, times and guidelines will be out soon. Please remember there are over 200 swimmers on our team and only 3 coaches!
Spirit Week continues today with beach day! Come listen to some beachy tunes and hit the slide!
One final note, The Ironman is this weekend. Tomorrow we will send out information about Fridays meet and a link with the race course. It is YOUR responsibility to find the best way in and out of Lakeside pool!
