Our meet this Saturday is against the Londonderry Bolts! 

Here is a timeline:

6:45 - 7:15am - Check-in

7:10 - 7:40am - Warmups

8:15 - Team Meeting / Line up for first events

Check-In!!

Please, please, please, please, please, please (is that enough groveling??) check your swimmer in by 7:15am!!  I can't thank the families ENOUGH who make it to the meet to check in on time (or at least let someone know that you are enroute)!!  If you've ever worked check-in before, you know that scratch time can be a very intense few minutes as we rebuild relays and scratch swimmers who are no-shows only to have them check in right as we are handing the data to the clerk!!  The data clerk, coaches, officials, and everyone else on the team thanks you for your assistance with this!!

Relays!!

You can check the WHITE BINDER at practice on Friday to see if your child will be swimming in a relay.  Coaches carefully build these relay teams.   If you are part of a relay, WE NEED YOU!!!  Please let Cindy or me know if you plan to be at the meet but can't swim in a relay.  There is also a list in the white binder that you can sign to let us know your swimmer should not be entered in a relay.    The other three swimmers on that relay are counting on you!!   A no-show during check-in will result in being SCRATCHED from the relay.  

Visit the Coaches!!

During the swim meet, swimmers are encouraged to visit the coach's tent (with their time, if they can get it from the scribe) immediately following their race for feedback and encouragement!!  The coaches are there for our kids and LOVE to talk to them individually after their heats. 

Good Luck to all of our WAVES this weekend!  Have a SUPER meet!
