Practice Schedule Tweaks

We have a few schedule changes that need to be made for our swimmers benefits.  These have come out of seeing the schedule in action and coaches discussions about what is and isn't working within the schedule.  Please make a note of the following changes -these are effectively immediately.

Thursdays:
Silver 1 will start later and finish later: 4:45-6:00
This will allow the group to work with Silver 2 for 45 minutes which is beneficial for both groups.

Fridays:
Scarlet will start at 4:45 and swim until 6:30.
Silver 1 & 2 will start at 5:30 and swim until 7:00
Once again, the coaches feel that we need to combine the groups to create a better learning environment for the swimmers.  The energy level on Fridays has been high and a bit difficult to work with.  By combining the groups we can push each lane at an appropriate pace.

Sundays:
ALL groups now start at 6:00
This is a tentative change as we wait for confirmation from OWU that we can utilize the entire pool at 6:10 until 7:30.

Scarlet 2:
We would like to encourage our Scarlet 2 swimmers to take Friday afternoon off and replace that practice with Saturdays at 7 am with Senior.

Extra T-Shirts

The Pollock Family has donated about 60 t-shirts sporting the new team logo to our Booster Club. The shirts come in a variety of colors and sizes. Each family will have their chance to pick ONE shirt on Monday or Tuesday at practice. On Wednesday, any shirts remaining will be available to anyone. A donation to the booster club for your shirt is optional. The kids are now receiving their team t-shirts that were made exclusively for kids and coaches. Kast-A-Way has not yet printed our red t-shirts, if you would like to order one I suggest you call today. These shirts are being printed on a light weight t-shirt from Sport Tek.

Coach of the Year

Dear Coach, Hope this email finds you well and enjoying the summer. We are writing today on behalf of the upcoming feature film COACH OF THE YEAR: an independent, kid-friendly sports comedy feature film based on the inspiring true story of a rag tag swim team that tries to win a state championship…without a pool to practice in. Director Dave Stott, who has coached swimming for twenty years, hopes that with this film, we will entertain and inspire kids all over the country to learn to swim. Another goal of this film is to raise awareness about drowning as the leading cause of accidental deaths and to help kids all over the country learn to swim safely. The underdog story has been told before, but not for our sport. This is a movie for swimmers (and would-be swimmers), made by people who know the sport intimately and love it passionately, and we’d love for you to be involved. We wanted to ask you and your team to help spread the word about COACH OF THE YEAR, and get you & you

Finalists!
