Putting the FUN in fundraising

First, thank you to everyone that has participated in the Micahel's Meats Fundraiser, supporting our National Team and Olympic Trial swimmers and coach.  Your outpouring of support has been such a positive light for this group!

We did have a group of people asking if they could just donate cash, which is absolutely OK.  But we also wanted to offer a fun contest for cash donations.  We have put together a fundraiser that centers around Olympic Trials to help generate excitement for trials and a bigger budget to support our team.

Materials for this fundraiser will be handed out at practice next week. 

WOMEN’S & MEN'S SWIMMING
BRACKET SQUARE POOL

(June 13 – 21, 2021)


$50 per square - Win on all TOP 3 PLACES OF ALL 14 SWIMMING EVENTS (42 Winners)

How It Works:

  • There are 100 squares in a 10 x 10 grid formation, numbered 1 – 100. 
  • Squares will be $50 each.
  • After all the squares have all been sold, the numbers for the tenths and hundredths places on the board will be randomly assigned.
  • After each swimming event is completed, the last two digits of the top three finishers will be used to determine the payouts.
    • Example – 1st Place 50 Free time is 24.19.  You use the 1 (tenths) on the BLUE portion of the bracket and move over to the 9 (hundredths) on the RED portion of the bracket to determine the winner.  The square where these numbers align is the winner.

Payouts by Place

1st Place Payout

2nd Place Payout

First Place Payout

$75

$50

$25

4 Random Winners (if all squares sold)

$100 per square number

Total Payout to Winners $2,500


$2,500 will be kept by the Buckeye Swim Club Boosters, Inc.
to support the National Program.

The original bracket board will on display at the Columbus North Sports Club.  A photograph of the completed bracket will be emailed/texted to all participants after numbers are randomly assigned.

  1. Thank you to everyone supporting the Michael's Meats Fundraiser your help means a lot to our swimmers and coach. We’re excited to launch a new Olympic Trials-themed fundraiser, perfect for those who prefer to give cash. It’s a fun way to stay involved and boost our team’s support budget. Materials will be given out at practice next week. If you're focused on studies and wondering if you can Pay Someone To Take My Ged Test Online, reliable academic services can help ease the stress.

  3. Streaming platforms often disappoint with cluttered layouts, but TwitchNoSub excels in simplicity. Its focus on performance, content variety, and interactivity enhances the overall experience. I feel welcomed every visit, knowing I can enjoy uninterrupted, high-quality streams without unnecessary distractions or subscriptions.

  5. That bracket contest is such a creative way to get everyone involved in the excitement of the trials. I know this struggle very well because trying to stay on top of swim practice while managing big projects is a lot for any athlete. If you are feeling overwhelmed with your school work right now, you can find great homework writing services to manage that stress so you can focus on the pool. Good luck to the team.

Mandatory SafeSport Training for Parents and Athletes

Every two years USA Swimming requires each SafeSport designated club to refresh their policies and renew their education base. As one of the first 50 clubs in the country to hold the SafeSport designation, Buckeye is continuing to lead the way in creating multiple paths towards protecting our athletes in and out of the water.  We have completed every step to renew our designation except education.  It is now time for each parent  on our team and swimmers 12 and over   to take the SafeSport course.  In order to do so you must have an account at USA Swimming.   Parents:   please take the course while waiting at practice or meet warmups.  It's quick and very informative.   Swimmers: this is a great way to spend your drive time to the pool (if you aren't driving of course). You may find the courses here: https://learn.usaswimming.org/?_ga=2.187740008.1509141630.1622943692-1206834513.1608482483 Please complete the course by Jun...
