Fun Meet added to schedule
Good afternoon Barracudas,
Good news! We have been approved by the HOA to run a Fun “mock” meet! Our fun meet will be Tuesday, May 29th starting at 6:00.
This intersquad meet is a FUN way for our Barracudas to practice staying with their age group and understanding the heats (before our first official meet against Towne Lake 5/31)! Please make sure to sign up for this meet as it gives us a chance to better prepare YOU and your Barracuda for the first meet! You all are able to see how the bullpen, starting blocks, relays, concession stand, individual events, volunteer positions, and DJ all come together to make an awesome start to summer! Think of this like a dress rehersal for the big show-- WE NEED YOU ALL THERE!
If you plan to be in town for the fun meet, please go to Swimtopia ASAP and declare your child as attending or not, and sign up for a volunteer slot. This volunteer position is IN ADDITION to the 5 you have already signed up for. Since this meet is just BF swimmers, it will be much shorter than our regular meets.
- SIGNING UP AS ATTENDING/NOT ATTENDING THE MEET:
Swimmers need to be marked as either attending OR absent in SwimTopia for each upcoming meet by SUNDAY @ 4PM prior to the meet (the sooner the better). Heatsheets are a very time consuming process with a team our size, and unfortunately we cannot add anymore swimmers to that weeks meet beyond Sunday! I know this sounds tough, BUT an easy solution would be to go ahead and declare which meets you will be at (or away) and not have to worry about it! Again, swimmers have to be marked as ATTENDING or ABSENT for the meet by SUNDAY May 27th, June 3rd, June 10th, June 17, and June 45th by 4 PM if you would like your swimmer to be apart of the fun!
SIGNING UP FOR EVENTS:
Barracudas have the ability to select which events they would like to swim; however, this is only a request, not a final selection. By the end of the season we will do our best to have every swimmer swim their desired events, and swimtopia is a great tool to help that! Please note that this is only a request from the swimmer (or parent), but we will have the final say as to which events your Barracuda will be swimming! These requests have to be submitted by SUNDAY @ 4 PM prior to the meet or your child will not swim.
As always, please contact us if you have any questions!!
Megan, Tina, and Sarah
