World Championship Silver Medalist

Former SBSC swimmer Bethany Galat (still holds 21 SBSC team records) and current 200M Breaststroke Silver Medalist from the 2017 World Championships will be in Indianapolis for the TYR Pro Series this week.  She has graciously excepted our offer to come speak to our swimmers.  She will be visiting us on Monday May 21st. All of our swimmers from every group are invited to practice this evening.  The 21st is a Monday and we do not typically offer Group 1 practices, but since this is not an everyday opportunity we will be adding a Group 1 practice that evening.

IA May Invitational, ND

A very good first two days for SBSC with a lot of new best times.  I will update all pertinent website pages later this week.

CON BW3 Invite, Merrifield Pool-Mishawaka, June 1st-3rd

Our entry has been sent.  I will include all pertinent information in the email the Sunday prior to the meet

NASA Summer Invite, Northridge High School, SATURDAY June 23rd

We will be attending only Saturday of this meet.  This meet was put on our schedule primarily for younger swimmers and those not yet with Divisional cuts.  For our more experienced swimmers and those with Divisional cuts or faster it is recommend you attend the Munster meet the same weekend.  For families unable to make the commitment to swim at the Munster meet they are still allowed to attend this invitational.  The deadline to commit is tonight, Sunday May 13th.

Advertising Credit 

A Group 2 or Group 3 annual membership plus all the other associated fees with our membership -- spirit wear, meet surcharges, technology fees, concession stand/hospitality fees, USA Swimming-- is just under $550 for an entire year. (A Group 1 annual membership is about $100 less.)  If you were able to sell two of the the Premiere+ adds it could easily pay for a whole year of swimming including meet entry fees!

Selling a one year ad to one company could earn you anywhere from $50 to almost $500. Here is the link for more information. 

Another easy way to earn credit for your swim club account is to hang our recruiting posters out in the public. For every poster you hang you will receive a $5 credit up to $25. Once you hang the poster post a pic of it on your Facebook page (or other social site) and tag the club.
