WARM UPS!!!!! - are at 7:30am again, this means all Swordfish swimmers should check in with their coaches no later than 7:15am!!!!

At our meet we had alot of issues with relays! This is very frustrating to the coaches as well as your team mates! If you do not want to be a relay team member then you need to write this on the sign up sheet, this is clearly written on all meet sign up sheets! If you forget to write No Relays next to your swimmers name(s) then it is important that you notify the coaches first thing in the morning!!!!!

From here on out, if you do not notify the coaches that your swimmer will not be able to swim relays and are consequently put on a relay team it will be the responsibility of your swimmer of your swimmer to inform their teammates that their relay will be scratched and they will be unable to participate.
