Weekly Check In September 26th

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.

Nationals Orientation: On Friday, October 6 at 6:30 we will have an informational meeting for all those interested in attending nationals or just are curious about it. This meeting will review the process required to attempt to make nationals as well as qualifications and other topics.  We highly recommend all those considering going to nationals to come, including those who have attended nationals before. Even if you do not think nationals is for you it is a great way to learn about a facet of the team. This is during a family swim so children may swim while the parents meet.

Friday Video Training: The room was packed for our first training! Reminder: After the video training the 11 and under swimmers will report to the pool and the 12 and up  swimmers will go to land work, so they need to come in sneakers and comfortable clothing.

Meet Schedule:  The schedule is up! https://www.billericabgc.com/meet-information .

Team Suits-  Information coming soon.

FINS- We are not utilizing fins yet, but they will be incorporated into practices as the season progresses for the 13 and up practices. If you do not have fins yet, we recommend short blade training fins such as “Speedo short Blade Training Fins”, “TYR CrossBlade Training Fin” or “Finis Z2 Gold Zoomers”. Please no long fins. Some children like to add fin socks that cut down on chafing. This is optional.

Thank you,

Coach Carol
