Parent Meeting 10/16 at 6:45 p.m.

On Tuesday, October 16, from 6:45 to 7:15 p.m. at the Shaker Middle School Pool, the coaches will give a brief presentation about swim meets. Topics covered will include: the importance of warmups and being early, the coach’s job at a swim meet, the parent’s job at a swim meet, swimming on relays, the Shaker Shark philosophy of competition, what to bring to swim meets, and all about “heat sheets”.

This meeting will be a great opportunity to learn more about swim meets and to ask questions. If you are interested in attending, please RSVP by emailing Sarah at shakerswimming@msn.com or by telling a coach at practice.

If you’d like to learn more about swim meets but cannot attend (or cannot wait), consult the Shark Youth Handbook. Section 2 of the handbook is filled with suggestions for swimming parents and Section 3 contains information about swim meets.

Hope to see you there!
