Time Trials 2018
Hello swim families!!
This is Coach Devyn :-)
I've had several parents ask me what Time Trials is, so I'm going to outline it for you guys!
All swimmers ages 7 & up will swim every stroke: freestyle, breaststroke, backstroke, and butterfly. All swimmers 6 & under will swim freestyle and backstroke. All swimmers ages 11 & up swim 50's (two laps), while 10 & unders swim 25's (one lap). There are no relays for this meet.
It is totally ok if your swimmer does not know how to swim a stroke legally yet! If your child is uncomfortable swimming one of the strokes please have them come talk to me! Also, if your 6 & under can swim other strokes and they would like to try to swim them, please contact me and let me know.
Our team has Time Trials every year so the coaches can see what the kids need improvement on. This is also a time for everyone to see how a real meet should go. Our goal at Time Trials is to HAVE FUN!!!
Here are some tips on writing events on your kids arms and how to read the heat sheet!
