It's official! Time trials is the official kick-off to our summer swim season, and we can't be any more PUMPED! We are going to run this as close to a dual meet as possible, so here are some reminders for Time Trials:

• Available swimmers AND divers are invited to attend
• Arrival time for everyone is 8:00 am
• Swim Warmups - 8:05 - 8:25am
• Dive Warmups - 8:05 - 8:25 am
• Start Time is 8:30 AM
• Everyone should sit on the "Otter" side of the pool (which is the grove side with the diving well)
• Most swim athletes will be entered in at least 2 events with a max of 6 events depending on the age group
• Divers will showcase 2 of their upcoming dives (Coach Tara and Sarah approved of course)

Go Otters! 🔴🦦⚫️

Time trials are set up like a meet, with each athlete competing in any of the 4 strokes (Butterfly, Backstroke, Breaststroke, Freestyle) and/or 2 dives. This gives coaches a baseline to measure progress, as well as help decide which athletes will swim/dive which events at meets. Time trials also help familiarize new athletes and volunteers with how a meet runs and what each volunteer's job entails.
