CONGRATULATIONS Sea Lions!!  Our team swam fast, scored more points, and ran a successful first meet of the season.  Next week we swim the Eagle Springs Flyers at their 8-lane pool!  Let’s show their team our Sea Lion talent, spirit, and sportsmanship!

• Swimmers, please remain in the pool until everyone has completed the heat. Shake hands, high-5, or smile at your fellow swimmers when you touch the wall.
• Be respectful of the other team’s swimmers, speaking kind words instead of teasing and taunting.
• Honor volunteer commitments and even show up a few minutes early to begin your shift.
• Leave the area in good shape, cleaning up all your trash before leaving for home.

 

Don’t forget to sign up for the next week’s meet on Sunday evening.  That’s the time to request strokes.  Our coaches will do their best to honor your requests.

 

Volunteers needed at practice….Please sign up at www.signupgenius.com:

      Check in swimmers for 6 and unders; 7 -8,’s; and 9-10’s.

      Help coaches in water and/or on deck

 

Only volunteers are allowed on deck…Please remain behind the gates unless you are a volunteer!

 

Everyone is still welcome to the pool deck on Thursdays to watch swimmers.  Remind your swimmers to always listen to the coaches. Safety is the team’s primary concern.
