Barracudas-

Happy Sunday!

The start of the season has been amazing! It’s been great working with our returning swimmers, it seemed like we all picked up from where we left off last July….but the kids have grown a foot or so since then!

I am proud to also say that our new barracudas have all been THE BEST new additions to the barracuda summer swim fam, they are challenging themselves to the new environment and meeting some new teammates along the way.

THEME——

Last week’s theme was “super kid” = how can we all be courageous, brave, and resilient?

This week’s theme is “new strokes” = we’ll be learning new skills and strategies to tackle each event (freestyle, backstroke, butterfly, and breaststroke) including starts turns and finishes of each.

MOCK MEET——

This week we have our mock meet on Thursday.

It’ll be a great chance to get back into the rhythm of the green machine.

We will only be swimming freestyle and back stroke for updated times along with relays.

I DO DECLARE!!! (for all swim meets) ——

Please make sure to declare for all of our meets this summer including the upcoming mock meet.

By selecting “not attending” or “attending”, it is VERY important that we know who will be participating at each meet.

Please have this done by SUNDAY of each week for the upcoming swim meet.

Any correction or last minute changes means it will have an impact on the flow of the meet and it could change entries or relays for other swimmers.

We understand there are special considerations for changes, however, be mindful of your attempts this summer.

It makes everyone’s jobs easier on meet day when things are in order.

HEALTH & NUTRITION——

We will continue to have discussions during practice to promote and enhance our athletes approach to their health and nutrition as an ATHLETE.

Please continue to have your swimmer bring a labeled bottle of water to practice daily.
