Good Morning Breaker Families
Happy Thursday.... Hope everyone is excited for the long weekend.  
Welcome Back Coach Lauren.  If you haven't been at practice this week, you missed coach Lauren's return from College.  Come by and say HI

Bitty Breaker Practice is cancelled tomorrow Friday May 24.
 All practices are cancelled Monday May 27th, enjoy the long holiday.  
All practices will be cancelled Thursday and Friday May 30-31 due to end of year activities and graduation.  enjoy another long weekend. 
Pictures are Monday June 3rd.  More details to come
Green and White meet is Tuesday June 4th and our first meet of the season is Thursday June 6 at North Lake.  


Morning practice will begin Monday 6/3.  Evening practice will still be held on non meet nights.  There will be two groups for morning practice.  The first practice is 9:30-10:45 and the second practice is 11-12:15.  The swimmers will be told in the next coming weeks which practice to attend in the morning.  It is important that your swimmer try to come to at their assigned session in the morning.  If you cannot make morning practices, please continue to come in the evening.  it is preferred that the swimmers come to both AM and PM practices but please do your best to come to practice daily.  
 If your child will be missing a meet, please let me know ASAP.  Check out the calendar on the site and email [email protected] with your swimmers name and the days they will not be able to participate in meets.  We want to give ourselves the best opportunity to win our meets and we simply cannot do this with late no shows and a lineup that we cannot change.  The further notice we have the better we can plan.  
Some housekeeping updates for everyone
Please clean up after yourselves and your children after practice and meets.  Put chairs back and garbage in the cans.
Breakers are not to be in the pool during bitty breaker practice unless one of the coaches have asked them to be in the pool.  Swimmers playing in the pool during practice is distracting to our younger crew. 
While bitty breakers are for our younger breakers, it is
NOT swim lessons
.  Our Bitty helpers and coaching staff are here to build on your child's established comfort and basic swim skills, like floating and going underwater in the pool. Please make sure your bitty is comfortable in the water and can hang on the wall
without assistance
while the coaching staff is busy.  If your child requires constant attention or a helper at all times, this not the program for them and not ideal to continue. Please email me if you have any concerns regarding this or if you would like Coach Lauren to evaluate your swimmers readiness.
Likewise, if your younger breaker cannot keep up with older group, they may be moved to bitty breakers until they are ready.  This for everyone's safety.   If ever you have any questions regarding your swimmer feel free to reach out and we can meet to discuss. 
A note for non resident breakers, just a reminder that participating on the swim team does not give you access to the pool outside of swim practice and meets. The pool is a private neighborhood pool during non swim meet events.  

City Meet is June 28-30.  Please start planning your swimmers weekend.  Please see below for a schedule of swims that weekend.  We are strongly encouraging 100% participation in Champ Meet this year.  Please plan on your swimmer participating in at least two events.  

Friday
Bitty Breakers and IM's
Saturday

Sunday

Our end of season banquet will be held after Champ Meet on Sunday June 30th at our pool.  


As always if you have any questions feel free to text or email me at [email protected] or 209.915.6273
