Swimmer Reminders
Please remember that swimmers may not wear jewelry during competition. This includes necklaces, bracelets, dangling earrings, and other loose items. To avoid delays behind the blocks, make sure all jewelry is removed before events begin. As we continue through the season, remember that every swim is an opportunity to learn and improve. Whether a swimmer achieves a best time, masters a new skill, or receives a DQ, there is always something positive to take away from the experience.
If you have questions or concerns during the meet—especially regarding DQs or meet rules—please contact Jon Hopewell, our TSA Representative for tonight’s meet. He’ll be happy to help.
Weather will hopefully be resolved before we start, but any changes will be communicated as quickly and clearly as possible. Pay attention to the WhatsApp groups and your email for that communication.
Following the meet, the team will be heading to Aversboro—please join us if you are able!
Most importantly, let’s continue cheering on our Dolphins and creating a fun, encouraging atmosphere for all swimmers.
See you at the pool!
