Week 3 news
Good Afternoon Piranha’s!
Just a quick update on the week and what is coming up next…..
The Piranha’s showed up this morning ready to battle and they came out on top with a final score of 414.5 to 369.5 Way to go swimmers!!! We saw some great personal best times achieved and several new all star times. Keep up the great work in practice and we are sure you will continue to drop those times. Just a few special shout outs this week for the older swimmers…. London S who showed up not feeling the best and continued to feel worse but held out long enough to support her teammates in a relay. I’m so proud of you London for hanging in there for your teammates and I hope you feel better soon. And a shout out to Abi A, Patrick S and Zoie G for always being so encouraging to our youngest swimmers. Your enthusiasm did not go unnoticed. Keep it up!
Quite honestly, I could give a “shout out” to every swimmer today. It’s so refreshing to watch these kiddo’s cheer each other on and get excited and it truly makes me so happy to be here to witness it all. Well done everyone!
Just a few reminders as we go forward in the season. If I have placed you on the roster for the A meet, I do expect you to come. Illnesses will happen from time to time and when they do, please try to shoot me an email in the event that I can find a replacement in time for the meet. When you don’t show up that means we are potentially handing our opponents free points and more importantly denying another swimmer the opportunity to swim.
And finally, let's all get excited for our first B meet of the season. This Wednesday, at our pool, we will welcome Quail Valley. Our theme is Outer Space. The coaches are very pumped to see some more amazing time drops from all the swimmers.
The sign up for the meet is open now and will close on Monday afternoon so don’t delay.
If you swam today you may not swim that event at the B meet. The only exception to this rule is if you swam freestyle today and did not place in the top 6 you may swim freestyle on Wednesday. However, if you swam back, breast and fly today you may not swim those again on Wednesday. 1 swim per event per week only please.
PLEASE CONTINUE TO DECLARE YOUR ELIGIBILITY FOR ALL A MEETS!! Last week I had to chase some of you down. This week I will not do that.
That’s all for now! I’ll see you all at our first AM practices on Monday! We can't wait to meet all of our pre team swimmers too!
Have a great weekend!
Coach Jenni
