Practice
Be on the pool deck and ready to get in the water when practice is scheduled to start
This means showing up at least 5 minutes before the start time
Bring a positive mindset to practice
Let a coach know if there's anything happening outside of the pool that we may be able to help with
Practice as a team, not an individual
Competition
All team members must attend the meet even if they are not competing
Athletes must be at school the entire day of the meet in order to compete
Every team member is invested in the team
Bring a positive mindset while on deck
Athletes will wear their team gear - swim suit, cap (divers optional) and bring their team warm-up gear
Athletes, parents, and coaches will follow good sportsmanship
Respect the officials and opposing teams
No phones out during the meet - keep it in your bag or a locker
Communication
Athletes will communicate any known absences (vacations, doctors appointments, etc.) with their coaches at least 48 hours in advance - the earlier the better!
Any unplanned absences or emergencies must be communicated to a coach as soon as possible.
Coaches will be available by phone, text, and email.
A weekly email will be sent out on Sunday afternoons. This newsletter will highlight any upcoming events, practices changes, volunteer needs, etc. that our swim and dive families should be aware of.
The team website will also be kept up to date.
