Practice CANCELLED 5/26 & 5/27

Hello everyone,

We've just received word from the Bradshaw Management Co. that the pool is being closed Wednesday (today) and Thursday for repair work. As some of you may have noticed, several tiles 'fell off' the side of the pool and need to be repaired, as well as a few other items that have to be done before the pool opens to residents on Friday. Therefore, we will NOT have any practices today or tomorrow.

We will resume practice on Tuesday, June 1st, with our morning practice schedule. During the practices for 6 & under, 7/8 and 9/10 we will have one lane available to complete time trials for anyone that missed them yesterday. Also, our 11 & up group will all do time trials to complete the events we did not get to yesterday.

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Tuesday Time Trials - May 25th

Good Evening Barracudas,

Tuesday, May 25th, we will be holding team time trials during each age group practice. What this means is that during your swimmer's normal practice time, we will have them swim the events they would swim in a meet and we will be timing them (ie 25 Free, 25 Back, etc.). We'll use these times to place them in events for the meet next week. The time trials give us a beginning point for each swimmer and allows us to more accurately place everyone in the proper heats (races) for each event. Therefore, it is important to try to attend.

If you cannot make it to practice tomorrow and you have a year-round swimmer, you can email us (Angela or Jeannete) times for all the events that he/she swims. If you cannot make it and you do not have a year round swimmer, you will still be able to swim in next weeks meet. The coaches will use their best judgement to place swimmers without 'time trial' times into event heats.

During each practice, we will need a few parents to help with timing the events. If you are willing to help with this, please let me know when you arrive.

See you at the pool!
