From the Coaches
- Quick shout out to my polo players this week. Great job learning and playing and exhibiting sportsmanship! Parents are welcome to come watch polo any time. It is really fun.
- Practice this will be same as last week.
- Monday, Tuesday, Thursday-swim until 4:15. HS state team back in the water. Club state swimmers can take a break if needed.
- Wednesday, Friday optional water polo. Rides need to be there by 4.
- Just a heads up, there will be no practice during spring break.
From the Booster Club
- Join us for the annual swim banquet on Thursday, April 18, 6:00 pm, at Harvard Ave Christian Church (5502 S. Harvard Ave). The banquet is a great way to wrap up the swim year by recognizing our swimmers, celebrating our seniors, giving out awards, and the always popular end-of-season highlight video.
- Seniors, please submit your bio and words of wisdom for the Swim Banquet by 11:59 PM on March 7, 2024. You will find the form to submit here
- Seniors and non-returning swimmers - You may begin to return your parkas either now or after spring break. Prior to returning, please machine wash separately in cold water and do NOT use any kind of laundry soap; hang to dry. If it is lost or damaged beyond repair there is a replacement cost of $150
- Looking Ahead: The final activity for the team each year is the annual float trip which takes place in late May/early June. Thank you to Lesley Jennings for volunteering to spear-head this activity. Information will be shared in the coming months. Because it will be a booster club sponsored activity swimmers will not be able to drive and we will need parents to serve as drivers and chaperones.
- Congratulations to freshman Farrah Sallam, sophomore Cameron Roark, junior Andrew King and senior Zach Catalano for their participation this weekend in the Oklahoma State Short Course Championships. While swimming for their club, they represented BTW Swim well!
