A note about practice -- We would like swimmers to try to make three practices a week and attend all SAL meets. Swimming very much follows the rule that you will get out of it what you put in. A swimmer who practices four nights a week will go further than a swimmer who practices one night a week. We do understand that our swimmers have homework, other sports, music lessons, etc. Our suggestion to parents is to sit down with your swimmer at the beginning of the season and discuss what kind of a commitment he or she would like to make to swimming this winter, and then do your best to stick to that goal.
