Meet Entries

This week is the first official week of girls high school swimming and the boys will start in two weeks. Moving forward all Group 3 swimmers will not be automatically entered in meets.  If you want your Group 3 swimmer to attend a meet you will need to commit them.  We would like all of our high school swimmers to compete at the January IA meet. That deadline is approaching so if your swimmer can make this meet please commit them.

T-shirt's
If you did not pick up your shirt on Saturday have your swimmer pick it up from me or another coach at practice this week.  Parents if you missed the first order for shirts (or if I missed your order) you can still get one.  I will be placing the order on Monday the 31st.  If you would like to order please email me the sizes you would like with the word T-shirt in the subject line.   We placed our original order on October 3rd.  If your swimmer joined after that time they will receive their T-shirt with the upcoming order.  I will bring the shirts for the NP swimmers and parents who were registered with club
