How often are practices?
Practices begin May 1 and occur Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday until after Memorial Day (No Wednesday practices).
After Memorial Day, practices will be Monday-Friday mornings.
Reminder: Practice times are set by the coaches, with an emphasis on making sure there is adequate lane space for each practice time, and that all swimmers are getting the best possible instruction for their ability level. Any questions about practices, please talk to one of the coaches.
What do swimmers wear and bring to practice?
Swimmers are encourage to wear the style suit that they feel comfortable in, however we do recommend that girls wear one-piece swimwear. Shirts, especially SPF shirts, are allowed, but anything that is really baggy, or has a lot of ruffles or frills creates drag and makes it harder to swim.
If you prefer your child to wear an spf shirt in the water, we recommend getting one that is form fitting, and meant for swimming.
All swimmers should have goggles, and a swim cap, and bring a towel, and a water bottle.
PLEASE: Put your name on everything you bring to the pool. Swimmers are welcome to bring their own kick board and fins but they are not required.
What do parents do at practice?
Parents need to bring their swimmers to the Sendero Springs pool with the equipment and supplies they need. Parents can also check their family folders. Once those items have been completed, parents can find a seat to watch their swimmer or go for a walk on the trail. Please note, coaches are not available to speak with parents during practices are they are ensuring each swimmers gets their full attention.
Do Swimmers have practice if it is raining? Thunder or Lightning?
Yes! Swimmers have practice rain or shine. However, your child's safety is our first priority. If lightning or thunder occur, the pool will be cleared for 30 minutes. Each time thunder or lightning occurs, the 30 minute timer is reset. If practiced is canceled due to weather an email will be sent from the coaches.
What is a Family Folder?
Each family will have a folder. The folders will be in alphabetical order by family last name. After each meet, any ribbons won will be placed in the swimmer's family folder. In addition DQ slips and other items of interest can be found there. Please check your family folder at all practices.
