High School Swim Team Update - Team Interest Meetings and Sign Up

Good morning everyone,

I hope your start to the school year has been going well!  I am reaching out with a few pieces of information for the upcoming High School swim season.



We will have an athlete and parent meeting at the HS in the Paradigm on Tuesday September 23rd to prepare for the season. The meeting will begin at 6:00 PM.

If you are interested in joining the team, please complete these items:
- Team Google form signup linked here for 2025-20256. This will ensure you are added to the email list and receive all of the important reminders and newsletter updates.
FinalForms for OHSAA Athletic Physical and Emergency Medical information by your first day of practice. Physicals are good for 13 months from when you last received one. They are good for all school sports.

If you are able to help us out with concessions volunteers, we would greatly appreciate it. All teams at the HS get put into a rotation to cover these events for Cardinal Parents Club. In return, Cardinal Parents Club is able to provide some great things for the teams like paying for team awards nights, scholarships, and helping with equipment and rental fees. If you are able to help us out, the sign-up sheet can be found linked here.

If you have any questions, I am happy to help!

Hope everything is going well and Go Cards!

High School Swim Team Update - Week of 2/17/25

Good evening everyone,

Great work at Districts yesterday! Be proud of all of your hard work and fast swimming this season! Swimmers combined to add 31 season best times to our postseason effort! Results and top times have been updated on the team website. Our reminders and schedule for the week are included below. I am happy to help if you have any questions!



State Qualifiers:
Marian Collins - 100 Breast
Dylan Tackett - 50 Free

Reminders:
1.) We will reach out to state qualifiers with ticket and schedule information in a follow up email.
2.) We are looking to offer some spring and fall off-season training options. We may also look to offer some options over the summer depending on interest.

If you think you may be interested in either or both of these options, please complete the brief survey linked here so that we have an idea of numbers.
