Practice Makes Perfect!
Sellwood swimmers have been practicing hard these last 3 weeks! They've been learning new strokes and techniques and gaining endurance. We've had a few particularly hard sets in the past couple days, and I just want to thank all the swimmers for pushing themselves hard (shout out to those swimmers who thought they couldn't complete the workout today, but did! Logan, Owen, and everyone else)! I know this will pay off when we swim in meets and at the City Championship Meet!
Speaking of that, the City Meet is on August 15th this year, and I really, really, really want to see as many of our swimmers show up as possible! I know some people will already have vacations and such planned, and that's ok, but we will plan to have everyone there, unless you let us know otherwise. This year we have a really big team and lots of strong swimmers, so I am really hoping that we can place in the top three teams at City! But in order to do that, it's really important that kids show up to help us fill our events.
Swim meet this Saturday at Grant Pool! Please be there at 7:45, warmups start at 8, and the meet starts at 9.
Potluck on Friday! We're asking for everyone to come at 7 if you can (if you can only get there by 8, that's ok, but we'll be done with most of our swimming by then), and we will swim, do team stuff, eat (bring something to share!), and do meet sign-ups.
Note for all swimmers! Make sure to sign up for the meet at the potluck! Once you get your food, come to one of the coaches (we will be sitting in chairs, probably right outside the party room), line up, and tell us what you want to swim. I know last time there was some confusion, but hopefully it will make more sense this time. :)
