Swim Team Update - Week of 10-22-18

Good evening everyone,

The 2018-2019 season officially begins Friday of this week!  Included below are a few reminders and our weekly schedule.

First Week Reminders:
1.) If you are coming out for the team, all forms must be completed in FinalForms including getting a physical.  You can hand in the physical in to me on the first day of the practice.
2.) Swimmers arriving to practice/and parents picking up from practice, please utilize the attached map for the swim team entrance/exit at the Wellness Center.  Also a reminder to try to utilize the sidewalks and avoid any giant mud puddles in the fields.  Thank you!
3.) There will be a swim team parent booster meeting tomorrow 10/21 at 7:30pm in the Hub/Library at MHS.  Please consider being part of this great group to support our student athletes through the season.  I promise you are not committing to anything in stone, the group meets once a month, is flexible, and provides awesome support to our student-athletes.
4.) For practice absences (starting Friday), please email me with reason (doc appointment, family emergency, sick, sport, etc) so that we can update attendance.  Thank you!
5.) For practice, bring a one piece suit, goggles, towel.

High School Season Meetings and Team Sign-Up

Good evening everyone,

An interest meeting for high school swimming will be held this Thursday, Sep 27th right after school in A-Lecture. We will pass out the team information packet and schedule. For everyone that can attend, we will discuss the important items to complete before the season begins. If you are in a fall sport or activity, please try to stop by even if just to grab a copy of the team packet. If you cannot make it, I will have extras in F-105 before or after school starting Friday.

Our parent and athlete meeting will be held Wednesday, Oct 3rd at 6:30 pm in A-Lecture. All team items for the 2018-2019 season will be reviewed.

Our first official practice will be Fri Oct 26th and conclude with our championship meets in February.
The other item we encourage you to work on before the start of the season would be your FinalForms medical clearance. All Mentor student-athletes need to have a physical completed for the first day of practice. https://mentor-oh.finalforms.com/

Our team website can be reached at Mentorswimming.com for additional information and updates.

Looking forward to a great season of Mentor swimming! Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you!
