Sea Wolves Updates Blog

Hi, Every year I worry that I might miss a senior because if they are not 17 at the start of the season I might not realize they are graduating. Below is a list of seniors that I know of, please email me if you should be on the list but are not (your senior gift is on the line here!).  Also  all seniors  please email me the following:  sweatshirt size name prefer to have on a sweatshirt (first, last, nickname?) start year (a 2012 coach who shall remain nameless, but was not me, lost all of our team data so we can't tell the start year of anyone who started before 2012) Also, this year there will be five $500 scholarships available to graduating seniors from our league who are going on to college. The application will be emailed out as soon as it becomes available and will be announced at sectionals.

Hello Team, The Sea Wolves still needs High School Swimmers. We particularly need 13-14 males and both 15-18 males and females. If your swimmer has friends on their high school team- this is a great way to extend their fall season or get ready for their winter season. hey will better school swimmers and have a great time with us! Perhaps you know someone who used to swim? We are a great way to get back into it. Flyer attached. Practice: Please have your swimmer in the pool area ready to swim on time. It is important that they have the opportunity to warm up, but swimmers easing into their swim are very disruptive to a lane that has moved on to their training sets. Sundays start October 1st. 10 and under swims from 8-9:30 and 11 up from 9 to 10:30. Wednesday start October 4th. This practice is for 13 and up ONLY and  will be 7:30 to 8:30.

Dear Team! Those who have been with us a while know we desperately want a timing system!  The Sea Wolves is a swim team that strives to balance fun and skill development. Swimmers compete to be their fastest and every personal best is awarded with a ribbon. Accurate timing is essential to our program: if a swim is recorded as faster than it actually was children may never reach their new unattainable false score. If the time recorded is slower than the actual pace,  then the child will not be rewarded for their improvement. A timing system will greatly improve our accuracy as well as make record keeping for 200 swimmers much easier! With a timing system all of the stopwatches will start automatically so half of the opportunities for user errors while timing will be eliminated as volunteers will only stop the watches. The timing data will also be uploaded automatically to the records system and therefore all data entry errors will be eliminated. Follow the link to donate:
