Weekly Announcements for Week of 8/28-9/3

Dear SBSC families, Practice Schedule Riley HS Group 1 Next Practice Tuesday September 6 G1 Elite Next Practice Wednesday September 7 Group 2 Next Practice Tuesday September 6 Group 3 Next Practice Tuesday September 6 New Prairie HS Group 1 Next Practice Tuesday September 6 Group 2 Next Practice Tuesday September 6 Group 3 Next Practice Tuesday September 6 Practice Notes: Fall/Winter Season Registration The on-line registration for the fall/winter is up and running. All athletes will need to register before being allowed back in the water. You can click here to get to that page. If you have any trouble please let me know. USA Swimming Registration As mentioned in previous weekly emails USA Swimming will now be requiring all athletes to register on their new website. This is an addition to our registration. I attended a Zoom meeting last week and the new process is as clear as mud. USA-S will be launching their new website later this week. We have been asked to have only first time members of the club try to register the first few days in an effort to not overwhelm their system. I think even the most optimistic anticipate there will be problems. I am recommending our members wait until at least the 15th to attempt to register. I will continue to research the process and in the coming days attempt to register my own children. More information will be coming as we work through the process. Changes for the Upcoming Season 1. My role with Group 1 and Group 2 during the school year will be greatly reduced. As most of you know Cooper is entering his senior year and Molly will be a freshman. What most of you probably do not realize is my family has not sat down and had dinner with each other on a school night, ever. Since Cooper will be leaving for school in about 12 months I feel it's time I change that before the opportunity is gone forever. I say this not looking for sympathy, my choices have been my choices. I am, however, hoping there is understanding. The summer of 23 I plan to be back to the same level of on deck presence that I have always had. (First announced 7-11) 2. We will be enforcing the 4 hour volunteer requirement for all Group 3 athletes. (First announced 7-11) 3. We have signed with a new suit company and our contract begins this fall. Our new company is called A3 Performance. Our plan is to have a team store up and running by the first week of practice. You can check out their website and what they have to offer by clicking here. (First announced 7-18) 4. During the Covid summer if a visitor was to watch our practice they would be hard pressed to determine what team was practicing. Very little SBSC caps or apparel were worn. We had caps, T-shirts, and bags from college teams, high school teams, and former club teams. I decided at that time no cap was to be worn at practice unless it was a team issued SBSC cap. There is little doubt now if a visitor were to come to one of our Group 2 or 3 practices what team was in the water. We have allowed for one day a week where swimmers can wear whatever cap they own. Those are our Fun Cap Fridays. Starting this coming season we are going to require our Group 1 athletes who wear caps to be wear our team caps during their practice. We will also be requiring all athletes, specifically our Group 3 swimmers, to wear only club T-shirts and apparel at meets. Any bags, hoodies, or shirts representing another team are not to be brought to meets. (First announced 7-18). 5. We will be requiring athletes, who are in their second season or later, to attend meets or pay a higher training fee. If there is a meet offered, in any given month, athletes will need to attend at least one session of those offered. If they do not, Group 3 will be billed an additional $25 each month, Group 2- $15, and Group 1- $10. (First announced 7-24). USA Swimming Guidelines - MAAPP/Safe Sport USA Swimming issued a directive with regards to electronic communication and social media contact between coaches and athletes. Most of what is being implemented is common sense and falls in line with our club's policies. One new requirement we will need to adhere to is how your minor child communicates with me. For several years I have asked swimmers in Group 2 and Group 3 to text/email me if they would be missing practice. Moving forward, swimmers will be instructed to include a parent on all communication with me.
 If you are the parent of a Group 2 or Group 3 swimmer, and have never sent me a text before, please text me so I have your contact info in my phone. This way if I need to contact your swimmer about missing practice I can be sure to include you. My cell phone number is 574-276-6057.
 I encourage all parents and swimmers to read the full policy. We are required to keep this policy on our website, here is the link. Fall and Winter Meet Schedule/Dates of Meet/Location/Deadline to commit Below is our fall/winter meet schedule. The first date listed is the day(s) of the meet and second date is the deadline to commit. Swimmers wanting to compete will need to commit to those meets. The deadlines are based on deadlines that were set in previous years. They may change once the meet hosts posts the meet information. When committing to multiple day meets if the option to select the days you want is not available, leave a message in the available notes section stating the specific days you would like to attend. Meets marked with an * require swimmers to meet minimum time standards. All pool locations can be found on our website under the "Pools" tab.

This class will be August 13 and 14 at Riley High School. This class will be at no cost to our athletes but they will be required to guard additional hours at our practices to cover the cost. If an athlete is currently a lifeguard we will pay for their re-certificiation in exchange for more hours guarding our practices.

USA Swimming Memberships I have received several questions about how to proceed with registering with USA Swimming. They will be updating their website the first of September and I hoping the process will be somewhat less confusing. I have been going over the materials supplied by both USA-S and Indiana Swimming and I will be attending a Zoom meeting prior to the 1st. Any pertinent information I learn will be shared with you at that time. As long as our athletes are registered prior to September 30th we will still be considered in good standing.
