Dive Into Action: Waves News for Our First Home Meet!
Waves Family,
Coming to you on a Monday this season with a splash of important updates! Thank you for an incredible "Time Trials" on Saturday. We learned a lot and are all geared up for our first meet this week.
This Saturday, June 7th, we're hosting the Lake Ridge Lancers right here at our pool! Coach Justin has asked that all our swimmers arrive at the pool at 5:45 AM for check-in. This is super important with our new system, so please make sure your swimmer checks in. Waves warm-ups start promptly at 6:00 AM. Coach wants to encourage all swimmers to utilize these warm-ups – they're a valuable part of preparing to swim their best!
Declare Your Swimmer & Relay Eligibility
It's crucial to declare your swimmer's availability for meets. Our new system makes this more important than ever. Please mark their availability either way, even if you're unsure. If you're on the fence, it's easier for us if you declare them as "coming."
For relay consideration, Coach would like declarations by Monday night. Meet sign-ups will officially close on Tuesdays at 11:59 PM each week. If your swimmer isn't declared by then, they may not be able to swim on Saturday. Good news: the entire season is open for declarations, so you can mark your swimmer's availability for the whole summer now!
Practice Reminders & Pep Rally Fun!
During practices, please remember that our coaches need to focus entirely on the swimmers. We kindly ask that parents stay on the upper deck during these times. If you have any concerns or questions, please use the "Contact Us" feature on our website or find a committee member on the upper deck.
And get ready to get "pepped up!" With our first home meet comes our first Pep Rally of the season on Friday 5-8pm at the Lap Pool! Everyone is welcome to come and participate in this fun event. Our wonderful concessions will be cooking up some tasty treats, and "The Voice of The Waves," Pete Sindt, will be pumping out some great tunes. Then we'll get our cheers on! Afterwards, please stick around to help the Deck Set Crew prepare the pool for the swim meet.
Volunteer Power!
Finally, please don't forget to sign up for your volunteer slots. We absolutely cannot run a successful swim meet without your help! Your support makes all the difference.
Let's make this first home meet a huge success!
Go Waves!
See you on the Pool Deck
