Hi Everyone!

Pre-team will have its first full week of practice this week:

• Monday, June 3 - 10:15-11:00
• Wednesday, June 5 - 10:15-11:00
• Friday, June 7 - 10:15-11:00

For those who are new to pre-team this year, in addition to practices 3 times/week, pre-teamers are invited to participate in our home meets (those held at the Canyon Club). At the midpoint of the meet (after backstroke and before long free), pre-teamers will get to "race". When the starter beeps, they will go off the blocks, the side of the pool, or start in the water assisted by a coach or a 15-18 swimmer. They will "swim" the length of the pool with assistance, then go to the ribbon table where they get to choose a ribbon. They will also receive a special pre-team snack. Once their race is finished, you are welcome to leave or hang out and watch the rest of the meet. Watch your email for pre-team report times as those home meets approach. 

Home meets are:

• Saturday, June 8 (just added)
• Monday, June 10
• Wednesday, June 19
• Monday, June 24

Home meets occurring on Mondays and Wednesdays will count as their pre-team practice for the day. If the team has away meets on a Monday, Wednesday, or Friday, those pre-team practices will be made up. 

Pre-Teamers do not travel with the team - they only race at home. The only exception to this is the 8 and Under Championship meet on Saturday, June 22 at Tanoan Country Club. The pre-team race at the 8U Championships happens at the beginning of the meet. You will receive more information about this meet as the time gets closer.

If you have questions, please reply to this email or text me at 505-228-2580. 

See you tomorrow! GO GATORS!
