This email is to provide an update to our families on practices through June 6th. The Ooltewah Swim Center has very kindly offered to let us use their pool this weekend so we can have in water practice and allow our coaches to get an assessment of each swimmer and get the kids swimming again!

As of today, the Cumberland pool is still waiting on the arrival of the plaster to finish the pool - so we have been looking at alternate options in the meantime so we are as ready as we can be fit out first meet one week from tomorrow!!

We currently have practice availability at Ooltewah Swim Center during the following times: 

Friday, 6/4/21, 2:00pm - 4:00pm

Saturday, 6/5/21, 8:00am - 10:00am 

Sunday, 6/6/21, 8:00 am - 10:00 am (ages 9+ only on Sunday)

It is very important that each swimmer attends at least one session (or all!) so that the coaches can assess their swimming ability, go over how a meet is ran, and start working on techniques. Even if your child swam during the 2019 season, they must attend at least one session this weekend, if at all possible. The only exception to this is if your swimmer is a USA/year round swimmer, but those swimmers are encouraged to attend as well!

Please note - In order to compete in our meet on the 10th at Ridgeside, we will need to have a coach certify that your child can swim in the water 25 yards unassisted. We are working on finding a location and times for in water practice the week of June 7 and will update ASAP. We highly encourage you to come this weekend if possible.

We have added these practices to our website and will need you to RSVP your swimmer(s) so we can get an accurate headcount.

We can answer any questions during dry land tomorrow evening (June 3). 

Thanks so much for your patience and Go Currents!
