Streaks Parents,

The second week of practice is behind us and it was, much like week 1, a massive success.  The kids are vastly improving and the summer is quickly approaching.  A few notes heading into the upcoming week:

First, Wednesday is our practice meet!  We are planning on having an abbreviated meet so it will be super quick, but will allow the kids to get back into the groove of summer swim team, and a good introduction to our first timers.  We will be sending out an RSVP reminder email in the next day, so if you are planning on coming, please let us know!  This is crucial for me to be able to organize the meet, so the more prompt the better!

Second, 6u parents: For starters, all of your kids are absolutely adorable and I love seeing their smiling faces every day!  From my experience coaching, I have noticed that little ones are very sharp and if they see their parent, it is a way to become distracted and avoid swimming.  If at all possible, when choosing your place to sit during practice, the worse the view they have of you, the better the results of what my coaches and I are trying to teach.  I get it, everyone wants to see their little one(s) swim, but my goal is to have them go a full lap without the aid of the lane rope and practice is where the majority of improvement takes place.  

Week 3 is set to be a good one and I will see you all tomorrow afternoon!  

Coach Grayson
