Upcoming Week 6/16-6/21
Hi Sharks!
I want to give a big thank you and shout out to those of you who showed up and stepped up at our A meet yesterday! Whether you swam up (Edun & Emilia), fought through illness (Ana, Kian, Lauren), or simply brought great energy (Faith, Jake, Jenna, Sina, and many more), your commitment and teamwork made a big difference, and I’m very proud of you!!
That said, we did have some last-minute absences and no swims that created some challenges for event lineups and the team’s overall performance & success. As a team, we rely on each other. Every swimmer matters, and every event counts. Your presence at meets isn’t just about your race; it’s about supporting your teammates and showing what we can accomplish together. Let’s continue building that positive, dependable team culture. Going forward, please remember:
- If you’ve committed to a meet, please make every effort to attend.
- If something changes, let me know as early as possible so we can adjust smoothly.
