Coach John email: Important! Lots of information
Team,
Here is a lot of information that will help with the next few weeks and into the summer. Please read this over carefully. I’m sure I made a few mistakes which I will correct promptly as they come up. Feel free to bring your questions to tonight’s Aquatic Club meeting. I hope to see everyone there.

- Swimmers who already have a "full load" at JOs will not be competing in this meet. Swimmers who have no cuts for JOs or just a few will likely be entered. Please email me with any questions regarding these entries. This is a prelims/finals championships for the 9-14 year old age groups and is a fantastic meet for catapulting into new JO cuts.

- These entries are due before the end of the YSCAP meet. BUT if you qualify at that meet you will be allowed to do a late entry into JOs. Unless I hear otherwise, I will expect that anyone who makes JOs will compete at JOs.

- This gives you an idea of the dates for the major meets we will be attending but there are still a lot of details for us to fill in as we get more information.
Our next meet is the John deBarbadillo Invitational hosted here at the GAC. This meet is the perfect opportunity for “low pressure” racing and we will be focused on improving race strategy, tactics, and gaining experience in events.
