Last Week of Swim Team

July 19th

Hey everyone!

This is our final week of the swim season. We will have our final regular season meet and then Championships!! We will be traveling to Hampton Ridge on TUESDAY. Warm-ups begin at 5:30 and the meet starts at 6:00pm. Since this was originally scheduled at the beginning of July, your availability may have changed. Please go in and mark if your swimmer(s) will be participating now with the change in date. If you do not mark yes or no it will not let me schedule your swimmer so please make sure to mark it in Swimtopia ASAP!!

Address: 6308 Hampton Ridge Rd, Raleigh, NC 27603 Phone: (919) 662-7641
Since there is a meet TUESDAY and Champs SATURDAY, we will only be practicing Monday and Wednesday. We want the swimmers to have Thursday and Friday to rest and get ready for Champs. Last day of Yoga will be Monday at 6:30! T-shirts will be ready for pick up on Monday! If you ordered shirts but have not paid yet, please make sure you do this prior to picking them up! Attached is a google form for anyone interested in ordering a championship shirt. It was tweaked a little for the front image but the back should remain the same. I wanted to share out the initial design to see if anyone would be interested. You would pay for these the day of championships. https://forms.gle/3neiPtQedhfQoS5Z7In terms of championships, I am doing a virtual meeting Monday night during practice about champs, any help needed, and whatever expectations there will be. For now, I have entered the meet into Swimtopia and most likely the volunteers needed for the morning and afternoon sessions. 10 and unders will be in the morning and the 11 and ups will be in the late morning/noon time. I will get more details Monday. Please go into Swimtopia and mark if your swimmers will be or will not be attending. I need this done by Tuesday because I have to submit entries by Wednesday. 

On Sunday July 26th, the day after champs, we will have our end of season pool party/awards celebration. We will have a pot luck dinner so please bring an item for all to enjoy. We will be ordering pizza and will have concessions open for drinks and any snacks. We will also be providing the cake. The party will be 7:00pm-9:00pm that night. If you cannot attend, please let me know and I will put any awards and ribbons aside for you to pick up later. 

Please let me know if you have any questions!!

Swimming is a fun and exciting competitive lifetime sport that is challenging and fulfilling for everyone. The Edgebrook (EDG) Eels Swim Team has been around since 1997 and has been the league champion for Southern Metro Swim League six times! Coach Cori has been our head coach for over 25 years and she also coaches High School swimming. We look forward to a fun and exciting swim season!

The swim team is not designed to replace swim lessons. Swimmers ages 7 to 18 should be able to swim unassisted before joining the team. Swimmers ages 10 and under should be comfortable in the water and able to swim 25 yards with very little assistance. Swimmers 11-18 have to swim a minimum of 50 yards continuously.  New swimmers must be able to do a swim assessment prior to the start of the season to determine the appropriate ability group practice.

The Eels swim as part of the Southern Metro Swim League (SMSL). If you are interested in joining Edgebrook Pool for the summer, please visit our website at www.edgebrookpool.com.
