You must have this registration to continue swimming in 2008 and to eligible to enter the Shark Chase & CAT OPEN. </p><p>When you come to practice it is very important to be on time and have your cap & goggles on, then start your stretching. As said in the last coaches corner it important to focus on one item of your swimming to improve each day.</p><p>Listening to the coaches can be hard at times if you & your teammates are talking when directions are being given (especially in the bubble) Please help the coaches with this task. Practice is fun when working hard with a focus on improving a swimming skill. See you at practice.
