Deadline for opting out of meets

Written by Lynn Oneil

Posted September 14, 2018 at 10:50 pm

Coach Craft has asked that I send out this email letting everyone know that the deadline for opting out of meets is next Wednesday September 19th.

All competitive swimmers WILL be entered into any and all appropriate meets unless Coach Craft is notified by above date of what you are opting out of. You can opt out of a meet entirely or just a day of a meet but he needs these particulars communicated by the due date.

All rec swimmers are NOT automatically entered into meets therefore, you need to look at the schedule of meets posted and email Coach Craft of which meets you would like your swimmer entered into also by the due date listed above.

Our meet schedule can be found by going to the homepage and the top navy blue bar has a heading “USS” if you hover over, it will drop down to “meet schedule” and you can see the full list with dates and locations.

Please call or email with any questions.

Thanks,

Lynn

Fit Clinic Hiccups……..

Written by Lynn Oneil

Posted September 11, 2018 at 10:52 pm

So we held our fit clinic tonite at the Kingsbury Club and we were missing quite a few swimmers!

Please be aware as stated in my first email, it was required that you all attend as we have a new suit this year and if you didn’t attend and aren’t in touch a suit will be ordered for you in the size you ordered last year.
Additionally, if you require anything else that is typically ordered only once per year (caps with last names, warmups, parkas,) I would suggest those be communicated to me at the same time as suit size request.

Lastly, I am missing a size 26 boys jammer from tonites try ons! I’m sure one of the younger kids had it on and forgot to take it off but I need to know who might have it so I can pick it up for return. These suits have to be paid for up front and if they aren’t returned we are charged so please take a look in your sons bags and let me know………Thanks!!!

Please call or email with any questions.

Thanks,

Bubble Up/Fit Clinic/Dates

Written by Lynn Oneil

Posted September 7, 2018 at 4:41 pm

So we have been notified by the Kingsbury Club that bubble will start to go up next Tuesday September 11th.
They have plans to have it complete by Friday but as always this whole procedure is very weather dependent.
Once everything is in place and confirmed I will send out an email clarifying practice schedules while this is taking place.

That being said, our annual Fit Clinic will be happening Tuesday evening 9/11 from 5-7. The plan is to have it in the back of the club near the locker rooms where we typically have it. If the location changes for some reason I will send out another email. Please make sure to attend as this will be when all orders will be placed for all apparel, team suits, equipment, parkas, caps with last names, etc. Alot of these items as most of you know are only ordered during this clinic so we can get the lowest bulk pricing available so don’t miss out!
Additionally, everyone MUST have a team suit and the suit IS CHANGING THIS YEAR!

Please call or email with any questions.

Thanks,

Lynn

End of season dates

Written by Lynn Oneil

Posted August 14, 2018 at 7:02 pm

So just a reminder this Thursday August 16th is the last day of Summer Rec and Friday August 17th is the last day for all competitive groups for long course season.

Registration is NOT live yet but my plan is to have it ready to go by this Friday and at the latest next Monday. I WILL send out an email alerting everyone that they can register their swimmers for the fall season once everything is in place as we are slated to start up on September 4th.

For anyone interested I have also uploaded a tentative short course meet schedule on the site. There of course could be changes/additions/etc but it will give everyone a general idea of what we are looking at for short course.

Please call or email with any questions.

Thanks,

Levels/Moveups

Written by Lynn Oneil

Posted August 12, 2018 at 9:32 pm

Dear Kingfish parents,

As we approach a new season, we thought it might be helpful if we address how the coaching staff thinks about swimmers moving on to the next group. The decisions are never easy ones, nor are they cut and dry. We make these recommendations, first and foremost, based on what we feel is best for each individual swimmer. We spend a lot of time getting to know your children, both in and out of the pool, so when identifying whether or not an athlete is ready to move to the next level, these are the primary factors we take into consideration:

1. attendance

2. work ethic/technique

3. times

4. age

Obviously, there are subcategories within these four, but if you have a swimmer who is wondering if they are prepared to meet the demands of the next level up, help walk them through these four things. Coaches are always more than happy to discuss questions or concerns with both swimmers and parents.
