Attendance Timeliness

Five minutes early is on time and on time is late! This will be a focus this year!

Attendance MANDATORY! Missing practice the week of a meet will result in missed

events at meet. More inclined to sit swimmers from individual events

rather than relays. Missing two days due to sickness deems an athlete not

physically ready to perform. Want/need healthy swimmers

trying to push through and swimming sick is not a good thing!

Attendance cont.Club attendance
