Good afternoon,

Please see the attached PDF for updated group assignments. As we do each season, we readjust training groups to better balance our practices by swimmer profile (a combination of: age/ability/stroke proficiency/experience).  

Starting today, TUESDAY, May 28, please attend the updated group you were assigned (attached PDF). This change mostly involves swimmers who are in the current "B" group.

• A Group - 5:15 pm - 6:15 pm
• B Group - 6:30 pm - 7:30 pm

If you don't see this email until later today, no worries, just attend your new assigned group the next day.

Why do we do this? Each season we have a different combination of athletes that move through the program. Some years we'll have many more high school swimmers, some years we have many more 8/under swimmers, or a large group ages up at one time. Plus, previous team members often come back at a different level (some swam all winter and improved tremendously, some swam and improved a little, some did not swim at all, while others became a lot more physically coordinated or grew 3-4 inches, etc.). Bottom line, the coaches always need 1-2 weeks of seeing everyone again to better determine the groups/lanes that are the best fit and where each swimmer is likely to improve the most. As the season progresses, if we need to make additional changes, it will be on an individual basis. 

See you on deck,

Coach Drake
