I’m about to hit the road for a weekend of Texas Swim Association meetings in Dallas, but wanted to get this out prior to driving.
If entering the TXLA (UT) meet, there are 50’s offered on the Friday session. These are fast and furious, with kids running everywhere to get to their proper lane/heat. If you are an experienced swimmer, and you want to enter any of the 50s on Friday, you have our blessing. However, these are very difficult to follow from a Coach’s standpoint, with swims happening in both directions, at a rapid pace. The 50’s are also offered on Sat and Sun, and the max events per day is 3, with a total number of events for the meet being no more than 7.
- Housekeeping items: When picking up from the late practices, please be on time. We’ve had kids waiting until 9:20 and 9:25 when their practices have finished at 9:00PM.
- Supposedly, when the light at 1431 gets stuck on red forever at night, I’ve heard that the sensor can pick up that there are cars waiting if lead car flashes lights from low to high beam, etc. Don’t know that to be an absolute truth or not, but wanted to pass it on.
- Swim team questions, swim meet questions, etc – email your main group coach for those. If not sure who your main group coach is, Kristyn will be sending a separate note out to the Cedar Park families with each group and your main contact with email address. Todd will be sending out a similar note for Bee Cave. Our front desk folks know a lot of things, but swim team info is not in their strike zone. Leave the swim team questions for us coaches. Thanks. (*For billing issues, email Denell@nitroswim.com). **If you have waited longer than 24 hours for a response from anyone, drop me a quick email letting me know that. Thanks.
That’s it for now. Thanks for being a part of Nitro Swimming.
