Upon registration, every swimmer will receive a team cap and t-shirt. Those have all now arrived and are located at the Brentwood ISC. If your swimmer is swimming in Fall Fest, please make sure that they pick theirs up this weekend. For those swimmers not attending, we will be distributing them over the next week. Once we are sure that every swimmer has received their T-shirt, we will be selling the excess off to parents so please keep an eye out for that.

All of our parent volunteers play a vital role in hosting meets. We simply could not host meets in your absence. While most jobs take little training or experience, meet officials go through an educational and training process that enables them to help officiate at all meets. In fact, our own Excel officials have outnumbered the host team officials in both our first two meets. We are very grateful to our officiating crew but are always looking for new members. Meet officials

• Ensure a safe and fair competition for all our athletes

• Satisfy all their volunteer requirements

• Have the best seat in the pool

• Have access to hospitality
