Hi Tiger Sharks families!

The other coaches and I are so excited for the first swim practice of the season on Monday! The weather looks a little rainy, so if we are not able to get in the pool, we may do games and exercises on the pool deck.

Practices:

Just a reminder, until June 9th, our practice schedule is:

Monday-Thursday

13 and ups: 4:00-4:45

11-12s: 4:45-5:30

9-10s: 5:30-6:00

7-8s: 6:00-6:30

6 and unders: 6:30-7:00

Please be ready to go at the start of practice; plan to arrive at the pool a few minutes early to set your things aside and be prepared to start swimming!

Swimsuits:

If you haven’t gotten your Tiger Sharks swim suit yet, you can still purchase those at the All American Swim store. You do not need to wear a Tiger Sharks suit at practices (but we highly recommend it), however, you do need a Tiger Sharks suit for swim meets (a previous year’s Tiger Sharks suit will also work).

Goggles & caps:

We also recommend goggles for everyone and a swim cap for swimmers with shoulder length hair or longer. If you didn’t order a cap at registration, you can still purchase last year’s caps, which will be available for purchase (while supplies last) at practices for $5.

Attendance:

Swimmers can expect to see better results when attending 3+ practices per week. The first few weeks of practices where we introduce each stroke are especially important, so please do your best to attend! However, we understand family schedules sometimes conflict with swim team schedules and that is ok!

Coach availability:

Parents, please do not coach from the side or interrupt the coaches during practice. If you need to talk to a coach, feel free to email us ([email protected] or [email protected]) or talk to us outside of practice times. Also, please remind your swimmers to be good listeners at every practice.

Please reach out if you have any questions, and I’m looking forward to seeing everyone at the pool Monday!
