Also, I forgot to mention at the parents meeting the requirement of birth certificates. If a swimmer does not have a birth certificate on file with Indiana Swimming and competes in a meet they will be assessed a fine. The best way to get me a copy of their birth certificate is to scan it into your computer then email me. This way if in the future there is a fine assessed you can show the mistakes was not yours and the club will pay any fines.
Swim Apps
Ally Krichef during her presentation to our new families spoke about two important apps swim parents should have. The first is OnDeck Parent. This app is free and is tied directly to our website/database. For OnDeck app our team alias is insbsc and your password is the same you have for our website. The second app is Meet Mobile. There is a small subscription fee but it is worth every penny when you are at a meet and want to see the results of your swimmer's events.
There is no practice on this day and all swimmers will be entered in the meet unless parents decline attendance. The deadline for opting out of this meet is Monday October 3rd. There is no cost for swimmers to compete in this meet. All swimmers should be on deck by 5:30. Swimmers will receive their team cap at this meet. The meet will start at 6:00 and last 60-75 minutes. After the meet we will have a team pizza party in cafeteria. The club will provide the pizza and the drinks. We are asking all families to bring a favorite dish. Families with the last name beginning with A- M bring your favorite side dish and families N-Z bring your favorite dessert. We will need 16 parents to help with timing, as well as least 6 parents to help with organizing/serve the food including 2 parents at 5:15. Most important we need everyone who is able to stay and help clean up. We are responsible for any mess we make including trash removal. Here is the link to the job sign-ups for this meet. (Please remember to sign-in to our website first)
Special note: For any of you that are bringing a dessert please do not bring brownies. This is not because I am some sort of over the top nutrition nut it simply because cleaning up brownies dropped on the floor then trampled by 100+ swimmers is next to impossible.
NCISC Fall Sprint Meet Saturday October 8th
This is a meet we have hosted for the last few seasons. We are responsible for hospitality for the coaches and for the concession stand. We will be asking for donations for both. All donations that will not spoil need to be turned in by Thursday the 8th. If we do not receive enough donations we will need to purchase the remaining need items. We will also need help in running both areas along with some other jobs. Here is the link to jobs sign-up for this meet. The deadline to opt out of this meet is Sunday October 2nd. The jobs website says the needed items listed will be listed in the weekly emails. I will post the list to our website as soon as I confirm with the volunteers who will be in charge of each area. More details will be coming soon. Swimmers are eligible to swim 3 individual events and up to 2 relays. The cost of this meet for each athlete will be $7 total. I will post all pertinent times for this meet in next week's email. Information can be located at our website under the meets tab or you can click here.
Dual Meet Vs. CON Swim Club
I have not received the official information yet for this meet. I assume it will follow a similar format as previous seasons. Our Group 3 swimmers will have a combined practice with the CON high school swimmers. The high school swimmers will have a breakfast together provided by the CON parents. During that time the rest of the team will warm-up and the meet will start approximately 9:45, again this is not official but based on previous seasons. The meet will take around 3 hours to complete. After the meet we have a team lunch at the BW3 located just a few minutes from Concord High School. Each family will be responsible for their own meals. The deadline to opt out of this meet is Sunday October 9th.
