January 8th Weekly Check In

Hello Team,


Schedule Updates:
Make-Up Watertown Meet: Friday 1/12: 12 and under at 5 pm, 13 up at 7 pm.


We have been unable to find a date that works for both teams so we will be doing a “Timed Meet”. Our team will race this Friday in our own pool. Watertown will race in their pool at their convenience. We will share our times and see who won!


If you cannot attend the Friday Make-up Meet please use this link:


There will be no check in, attendance will be taken by the cards as we call them. We will post the events on the wall and attempt to email them out before hand.  We will start warm ups for the 12 and under right at 5 pm and go into racing directly afterward. We hope to be ready for the 13 and ups by 7 pm.


We will also include some split timing for better relay planning for 9-10s and 13 ups only as the other age groups swims the same distance in solo and relay events.


We will need 10 volunteer timers for each grouping. I am unsure if there will be any concessions for this meet.


Salem Meet: 1/13/18 check in will be at 12:15


We are still working to reschedule the Funday Friday.


Nationals:


Both the Friday Make-up and Saturday Meet will count towards Nationals Qualifying. Saturday will be the last day to qualify. Notifications will be sent out next week.


Sectionals:
Worcester Boys and Girls Club has been kind enough to host the event again


1/27/18 AM: 9-10 &  Later AM or early PM: 11-12
1/28/18 AM: 8-Under & Later AM or early PM: 13-14 & 15-18
Exact times will be announced the week of Jan 22.


This year there will be 3-5 minute break after each of the 8 events instituted in the 8-Under session due to their smaller numbers and shortness of both their events and of their session. This will allow swimmers in back to back events a few minutes to rest before swimming again. For example if there is only 2 heats of the 25 fly for the girls and the same for the boys a swimmer in the both 25 fly and 50 free may only have 2 minutes between before their 25 fly and 50 free. This will ensure a brief break.
