The coaches will select the top three swimmers for each event in every age group. If your child is selected, you will receive confirmation on Wednesday. If selected and unable to attend, you need to email the reps asap so that the coaches can fill that space. This is a scored meet and we need 100% commitment if selected. More information will be sent out on Wednesday.
Tuckahoe Ball Availability - As we plan for the season we need to know if your family will be attending the Tuckahoe Ball at the end of the season (July 24th). Our team is very large and only a few venues are able to host this event. Please complete this Google form asap. Tuckahoe Ball AvailabilityFinally, please remember that all unvaccinated swimmers need to wear a mask when not swimming. The reps and coaches are not able to police everyone when in the team area during a meet or even after practice. We have a jampacked season and we need to continue to be vigilant. Going forward there will be a basket to place masks(in plastic baggie) at the start of a race and will be brought down to the swimmers at the finish.
Go Tuckahoe (CLAP)!Colleen and Camille
