Take a look at the Age Group Championships qualifying times to see how close you are to making your AG cuts.
Good luck, Sharks!
The Short Course Team Records have been updated to reflect the successes of this season. Our swimmers have set TWENTY-FOUR new records this season - that's amazing! I have a feeling that we're not done yet either...
Great job, Sharks!
Please take a look at the District Championship Meet information in the above link....it has the event info as well as the warm-up times.
Follow this link to see the event entries for each swimmer at this weekend's championship.
For our 8 and unders, note the following: "8 & younger swimmers competing in 25-yard events in the morning sessions must report to the Clerk of Course. They will be escorted to the blocks at that point by swim meet staff. 8 & younger swimmers competing in any 50 and/or 100 events need to report directly to the blocks."
There will be NO practice on Friday or Saturday this week due to the championship meet.
Good luck to all swimmers!!! Go Sharks!

Hi all.
Coach David has asked that all swimmers come to the Y at 4:15 this Wednesday ( 2/3) for a photo op. A photographer from the newspaper will be there at 4:30pm. He plans to take the pics quickly and then leave...so, don't be late. Feel free to wear your team suit, if you have one. After the photo is taken, there will be a combined practice for all age groups from 4:30 to 6:30pm.
See you there!
Greetings Swim Moms & Dads ---
As you know, we are co-hosting a meet this weekend with WAC at Fort Eustis. As a meet host, one of our responsibilities is to "feed and water" the approximately 75 coaches and officials. Because we are co-hosting the meet, our swim club is only responsible for Sunday's meals and snacks. Should be a piece of cake! I'm hopeful that you would each be willing to pick something off the list below to contribute to our efforts in hospitality --- if everyone contributes, our expenses will be minimal and the meet will be more profitable for the team ---YEAH!!
Thank you in advance!!!
Julie Ross
Walker & Wyatt's Mom
