Meeting last night
We need volunteers to run a meet. Please volunteer for a job. Our first home meet is June 20.  Parents who are familiar with summer swim meets please help the parents who are new to Kings Landing.

Please let me know if your swimmer will not be at the first meet. We have 20 swimmers away on June 20.

              No practice on Friday, June 12, 2015 


If you still need a team suit you can call Swim Pro or go to Swim outlet .com and order a green suit or a black suit with green trim on the side. This year the team is wearing the TYR Viper.  No club caps  or club team suits are worn at the meet. If you have not received a Kings Landing cap, please see Hannah or me.

Swimmers who have not been to a practice by June 17 will not be in the first meet. Club swimmers are excluded. These swimmers have kept in touch with me. 

Our first morning practice will be Friday, June 19. 9-10:30 for the older swimmers and 10:30-11:30 for the younger swimmers.  Please try to make this practice so we can run some events and practice our relays .

TIME TRIALS  June 15
Monday evening everyone needs to report to practice by 4:50 for time trials. We will run the events in a swim meet to get times for those swimmers who have no idea how fast they swim. 
Swimmers- if you can not make the practice send your times to me if you have them. Please identify if the time was from a yards or meters meet.  Parents are needed to help run this adventure in swimming.

                           

Times are needed for :

   8 and younger for 25 free, back and breast 
   9-10 yr  olds:    50 free, 25 back, 25 breast and 25 fly 
  11- 13 yr  olds  :50  yd  for each stroke  and 100 IM
 15-18  yr  olds  : 50 for fly, back, breast, 100 free and 100 IM

Please don't panic if your swimmer can not make time trials on Monday. We can get a time later.

I want to begin at 5 pm or shortly after. We'll begin with breaststroke and end with backstroke. If there is time we will time the IM ( Individual Medley- each swimmer swims 25 yds of fly, back, breast and free).


Finally, it looks like the week of June 22- June 26 we will practice in the evening at Kings Landing. There is a Cub Scout Day camp that week and they have swimming activities in the morning.
