Responsibilities:     FOR SWIMMERS TO QUALIFY TO SWIM AT CHAMPIONSHIPS, HE/SHE MUST SWIM IN TWO DUAL MEETS.  THERE WILL BE NO EXCEPTIONS.

 

ATTENDANCE POLICY:

     IT IS THE SWIMMER’S RESPONSIBLLITY TO ATTEND PRACTICE AND SWIM.  THE COACH SHOULD NOT NEED TO COAX, BRIBE OR THREATEN A SWIMMER TO GET INTO THE WATER.  PARENTS SHOULD BE AWARE OF THEIR CHILDREN’S ATTENDANCE AND BEHAVIOR.

     ATTENDANCE TROPHIEA ARE AWARDE TO EVERY SWIMMER WHO HAS NO MORE THAN TWO UNEXCUSED MISSED PRACTICES.  ATTENDANCE WILL BE TAKEN AT DIFFERENT TIMES THROUGHOUT THE SCHEDULED PRACTICE TIME.  IT IS EXTEMELY IMPORTANT FOR THE SCHEDULING OF MEETS AND CHAMPS THAT ATTENDANCE BE A COMMITMENT.

     IF YOU ARE GOING TO MISS A PRACTICE OR A MEET, A NOTE MUST BE TURNED IN TO THE COACH AT LEAST THREE DAYS PRIOR TO THE ABSENCE.  PLEASE USE A LARGE PIECE OF PAPER AND MAKE SURE TO DATE IT.  IF THE ENTIRE FAMILY IS GOING TO BE ABSENT, EACH COACH FOR THE APPROPRIATE AGE GROUP NEEDS TO BE NOTIFIED.  DO NOT EXPECT ONE COACH TO TELL YOUR CHILDREN’S OTHER COACHES.  SOMETIMES THEY DO NOT SEE EACH OTHER THROUGHOUT THE DAY.  IN EMERGENCY CASES ONLY, A CALL TO THE COACH IS ACCEPTABLE.

     IT IS IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER THAT THE TEAEM IS AFFECTEDIN SEVERAL WAYS WHEN YOU FAIL TO SHOW AT A MEET WITHOUT PRIOR NOTIFICATION.  FIRST OF ALL, IT COST US MONEY BECAUSE WE PAY FOR EACH

 

CHILD, IN EACH EVENT.  ALSO, SOMETIMES THERE IS NO ONE ELSE TO REPLACE YOU IF YOU ARE IN A RELAY RACE.  THEREFORE THE ENTIRE RELAY TEAM MUST SCRATCH THE EVENT.

     ABSENCES FORM SWIM MEETS WILL NOT BE EXCUSED ABSCENCES.  IF A SWIMMER NEEDS TO BE EXCUSED, AS STATED ABOVE, THE COACH SHOULD BE NOTIFIED BY Monday PRIOR TO THE MEET.  THE COACHES FINALIZE LINEUPS ON MONDAYS, AND IT IS DIFFICULT TO MAKE CHANGES AFTER THIS TIME.

 

PARENTS WORK RESPONSIBILTIES:

     ALL FAMILIES MUST BE INVOLVED FOR THE SWIM TEAM TO CONTINUE TO BE A SUCCESS.  AS WE ALL KNOW, THERE ARE MANY JOBS TO PERFORM AT THE MEETS AS WELL AS BEFORE AND AFTER THE MEETS.  EVERY FAMILY MUST PARTICIPATE.  MAKE SURE TO CHECK THE WORKERS SCHEDULE AND BE THERE TO DO YOUR JOB.  IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO BE AT THE MEET YOU ARE SCHEDULED FOR, IT IS YOUR OWN RESPONSIBLITIY TO GET A REPLACEMENT.

      FOR ALL NEW PARENTS, REALIZE WE HAVE ALL BEEN THERE.  IT IS A LITTLE CONFUSING AT FIRST.  THE COACHES AND OTHER PARENTS ARE HERE TO HELP, ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS ASK.

 

HELPFUL HINTS FOR NEW PARENTS:

What to bring:  towels (2 or 3), dry clothes (especially early in the season when the evenings tend to be chilly).  Food and drinks.  (If you don’t want to buy it at the concession stand) pen to write down event numbers, swim suit, swim cap, sun screen, lawn chairs.

 

 

 

 

Where to find event numbers:  most events are posted on a fence

With in the pool area.  The lists are usually arranged by age and alphabetically.

If you are not scheduled to work, but would like to help, just ask there always things to do.

What are exhibition swimmers?  League rules state that only three swimmers can swim for points for a team.  Therefore, some swim for exhibition only and do not receive points.  They still receive a ribbon.

Make sure to clean up your area when you leave.  Also double check where your child was to make sure it is clean before you leave.

If you arrive early to home meets, there are always things to set up; it is wonderful if you can help do this also.

 

Lost and Found

PLEASE CHECK THE LOST AND FOUND BASKET WHICH WILL BE AT THE MORNING PRACTICES.  MAKE SURE TO LABEL ANYTHING OU CAN.

 

IT IS THE POLICY OF THE BOARD TO NOT GIVE REFUNDS FOR ANY REASON.
