Sunday News #10 (but on a Monday)

Well, that was a weekend we won't forget too soon!  I hope that everyone is safe and had little to no damage!  If you did, I know swim team emails from me are the last thing on your mind right now!  

There are some things that do need attention earlier in the week in order for us to get things squared away with the Eden and to understand how our meet tomorrow with Millersville will work.  

Millersville Meet--Away (NEW)

THEME: Dress like a coach!

From Coach Anibal:

     This Tuesday's meet swim meet will be at Millersville. They are one of the teams with a 4 lane pool, therefore, according to league rules there only needs to be one Live heat swam per age group

Because of the size of our team, and the size of their pool, we will only be taking Live swimmers and 2 relays per age group. 

How this affects our team and our swimmers: 

  • If you're swimmer is swimming in the meet with 2 Live events and a relay, those are the events they will swim. If your swimmer has 1 Live heat and 1 relay. They will get to pick 1 other exhibition event to swim if they want to. They can also choose not to. 
  • If your swimmer only has a relay swim, they may pick 2 other exhibition events to swim as well. This will only apply to this meet at Millersville because of the size of the pool. 
  • The next meet at Hempfield, July 14, will be a regular meet where we expect to take however many swimmers that would like to go. I will send a preliminary lineup out on Monday so that everyone can get an idea of what they are doing and tell me what they would like to do. 
  • I hope everyone can understand the circumstances and why our decision us such. If you have any further questions, please reach out to any of the coaches or me. Thank, Coach Anibal

With that being said, if your swimmer is NOT swimming tomorrow and you signed up for a job, we will take care of finding a replacement with the swimmers who are going. 

Please reach out with any questions!
