Big Waves Little Waves

We can't wait to pair up our younger swimmers with some of our more experienced swimmers for our Big Waves Little Waves program. Please review this page and then complete the appropriate survey at the bottom.

"Big Waves Little Waves" days will be held on Wednesdays.

During practice, the experienced swimmers will be in the water working with our younger swimmers, giving them some individual attention.

Throughout the season, Big Waves are encouraged to bring something small (less than $5) to the meets for their Little Waves.

First Home Meet: Bring your Little Waves their favorite drink.

Second Home Meet: Bring your Little Waves their favorite snack.

Third/Fourth Home Meet: Make a sign to cheer on your Little Waves

Championship Meet: Cheer your Little Waves on!! (You are also welcome to make a SMALL Good Luck Bag for them, but please keep it under $10.)

Little Waves - You are not expected to give your Big Waves a spirit item, but if you choose to please keep it small.

We love our Waves program but sometimes our Big Waves Little Waves program experiences bumps. Please keep the following in mind

Sometimes we don't have enough Big Waves to pair up with Little Waves so they end up with 3-4 Little Waves.  (This can get expensive for spirit gift giving.)

Not every swimmer attends every meet or every practice and some of our Big Waves are unable to attend additional practice times. This means that there may be times when Little Waves do not have their Big Waves during "Waves Days" or they may not get a spirit item at a meet.

Big Waves, please try to keep the following in mind.

Keep gift giving to a single item  that will be designated by our Coaches. (Little Waves do not understand why their friend next to them got 5 different items from their Big Wave and they just got a drink.)

Chat with your Little Waves before or after practice. (Say hello and get to know them.)

When you miss a home meet, please try to find another Big Wave or Coach to pass along your spirit item to your Little Wave.

Help your Little Waves get to their events, when possible. (We know that you may have just swam an event or you have an event coming up, but help them out when you can. Our Coaches really appreciate this.)

Cheer on you Little Waves at every opportunity you can. (We want to hear and see you on the turn end of the pool.)

Remind your Little Waves to check in with a Coach after they swim each event. (It would also be good to check if they are swimming in a relay at the end of the meet to make sure they don't pack up and leave early.)

11 and older swimmers - please fill out the Big Waves survey.                                                                  10 and under swimmers - please fill out the Little Waves survey.
