#2: Due by May 16th C.S.S.T. Information & Meet Attendance Sheet: All meets; this form allows us to update team mgr. database & to have a better idea who will or will not be present for each swim meet. All swim meets take a great deal of planning. WE cannot do this with out YOU!!!! Swimming, more than any team sport depends on the participation and support of parents, grandparents, siblings or any other willing soul we can find. I have always been as proud of our parent “TEAM” as I have been of our children’s team. Our team’s parents know how to keep their adult egos out of the way of the children’s moment in the spotlight. Not all teams are as lucky as we are.

Jan’s Helpful Hints: 1. The Day of a meet stay out of the sun and heat as much as possible, save your energy for the competition. 2. Swimmers should eat high-energy carbohydrates (spaghetti, lasagna, bread, baked potato, etc.) beginning the night before a meet. Eat no closer than one and one-half hours before a meet so the food can be digested. 3. Avoid carbonated beverages before and during meets, carbonation affects the child’s ability to breathe deeply 4. Dual swim meets usually last 3 to 4 hours. Smoky Mountain and City Meets are all day events. 5. Proper behavior is expected at all times, if a problem arises with another team’s child, please let Jan handle it. 6. Please help keep the team and spectator areas clean by putting trash in the trashcans. 7. Please give Coach Jan advanced notice in writing (fill out form #2 in this packet) when your swimmer will miss a meet. Rearranging the swimmers lineup at the last minute is very difficult. 8. Do not leave a meet early without informing the coach. There may be last minute changes and your swimmer could be needed to swim a later event. Part of being a team member is supporting each other to the very end of the meet. 9. It is not acceptable for swimmers to pick up smaller swimmers and carry them around. Yes, they are cute and may even ask to be held or carried. PLEASE DON’T. A wet slippery child is like a wet slippery fish. Sometimes it’s best to just let it go, then stand back to watch nature in the wild. Form # 2 Due: May 16, 2016
