Tiger Sharks!

Can you believe we are now 2/3s of the way through the regular summer season?! That’s 4 out of 6 of our regular season meets! In the last email we covered “What is Champs?” Champs is the grand finale of our summer swim season! See the Champs page on Swimtopia!

Swimmers must qualify to attend Champs, by achieving a QUAL time or better in an individual stroke and swimming in at least 2 meets. Swimmers may compete in 3 individual events and 2 relays. As of today, 105 swimmers have qualified!

My swimmer only qualified in 1 stroke… is it worth it to go to Champs? YES!

Even if your swimmer only qualified in 1 stroke for an individual event. There is also a freestyle and medley relay! Any swimmer who has qualified for Champs or who has swum in at least 2 meets can swim in a relay!

You’ve heard us say it before… Every swim counts!

What we mean is when you look at the results and the scores at the end. You’ll see that gold swimmers swim against gold swimmers, silver against silver and bronze and against bronze. So it’s important to have all of our swimmers there. Every one on the team matters and every swim counts, this is where swimming is a team sport! We need everyone to attend!

It’s FUN!

You thought we had fun at dual meets?!?! Wait till you see Champs! It’s a party! Tattoos, goodie bags, signs, banners etc.!

Ice Cream!

For those swimmers that are signed up to attend Champs we will be having a special Ice Cream social and poster making party at the club house on Sunday July 20th from 1-3pm! The JiJi’s Ice Cream Truck will be there!

We hope everyone will mark their calendars and save the dates to attend, as this is a really exciting meet! We want as many of our Tiger Sharks to attend as possible! The Champs swim meet declaration is open for swimmers to sign up. We will work on volunteers closer to. We know these are weekdays, so hopefully this gives parents time to make arrangements for time off work if needed. We also have multiple parents going and will always help you find a carpool! Just let us know!

Any other questions? Ask Coach Daniel or Coach Lauren!
