Meet Results 6/27, Times Report, & Weekly Update
Swim Families,
We had another great meet at Minster last Thursday! I was really impressed with the number of swimmers we had involved and their continued effort. We love watching them swim! Also, thank you again to our volunteers! You all are the best and we really appreciate your willingness to help out!
Top Times & Champs
As we close in on the final weeks of our season with one regular meet (July 9th @ Botkins) followed by Championships (July 20th) I wanted to share a Top Times report. This report shows each athlete's current best time for each event. At Champs we are allowed to enter 2 individuals per event and 2 relay teams for each relay event resulting in around 8-10 swimmers per age group participating. While championship entries are based on times, there are variables including swimmer availability, times that may include stroke errors, swim-ups, and limits (3 individuals per athlete) that result in more than the top two swimmers being entered. We do have several events that we do not have any recorded times and it would be GREAT if we can get some athletes into these races at Botkins!

- Swimmers DO need to be registered (marked available) and are allowed to request events. We will base final entries on times but if a swimmer has a preferred event we like to know. Any swimmer not marked as available will NOT be entered. Last call for champs availability will be July 12th as entries get turned in on the 14th.
- Champs is at Versailles again this year. The meet may be slightly longer than our usual dual meets but will still finish by 1 or 2 at the latest (assuming no weather delays... last year was rough!)
- Please let me know if you have questions!
Looking forward to a strong week of practices improving our technique! As always, please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
