All practices are at Forrest Crossing's pool located at 1010 Riverview Drive.

1. Practices will be Monday through Friday except for meet days.
2. Bring swimmer to as many scheduled practices as possible
3. Arrive no earlier than 10 minutes prior to practice time. Pick your child up no later than 5 minutes after practice is over.
4. Practices are designed to not only teach the individual strokes, but also to refine the strokes being taught. Each swimmer’s attendance is not only valuable to their stroke development but is also important for their overall confidence as a swimmer.
5. If your child does have to miss a practice, workouts (for ages 9 and up) will be posted on our team whiteboard. There will be a lane open for lap swimming and swimmers may swim the workout when time permits them to do so. (If you have a younger child, have your swimmer swim 25 yards of each stroke, and then have them choose their favorite stroke and swim 50 yards of that stroke.)
6. Every Wednesday will be an afternoon endurance practice.
7. Friday will be “Fun Friday” with all swimmers attending practice together. Awards will be given out at the Awards Ceremony. If you miss getting your ribbons, your swimmer will have a file folder with their name that will have their ribbons that you can get at a later time.

In the instance of storms or heavy rain, practice will be cancelled. We will try to send an email and post on the Facebook page before practice begins, but please use your best judgment. If you notice lightning, hear thunder, or the rain is coming down really hard, you can bet we won’t have practice.

Apparel for Practices:

• one-piece racing suit for girls and jammers or speedos for boys
• goggles (whatever style that is preferred by the swimmer)
• swim cap
• Towel
