Greetings Wahoo Families!

Welcome to Mock Meet Week! Our Mock Meet will take place on Tuesday, June 6. We will be using an inter-squad format similar to last year (Blue vs. Green) to make things fun.

What is a Mock Meet?

• A practice swim meet so swimmers will get a feel for what a real swim meet will be like. Only our home team is involved. It is also used to record each swimmer’s time in each event so the coach can place the swimmers appropriately.
• The practice meet also makes a great opportunity to have our volunteers get some on the job experience before a real meet
• For this meet, all swimmers will swim every event so we can get beginning of the year times. In future meets, swimmers may not always swim all events.
• Relays will be run - time permitting- at the end of the meet. We will begin the meet with individual events. (There is no deck lighting at this event)

Volunteers

• No meet can happen without a great team of volunteers. Our volunteer coordinator has emailed assignments for the mock meet. Those working new jobs need not worry - this will be a learning experience and we have your back! Timers: this year we will be scoring meets on time, so we are running 2x timers for each lane on wireless stopwatches. CHECK OUT THIS VIDEO as a primer - it's easier than ever, as the watches will start automatically with the starter.

Mock Meet Timeline

Parking Reminder for Mock Meet:

We always encourage families to walk if they can, but we understand for some families with younger kids, this can be a challenge. For the mock meet, the pool parking lot will be available (for the other home meets, the lot will be reserved for the visiting team). Overflow parking will be available on Walden Creek Drive, but ONLY on the pool side of the street.

Pre-Order Dinner for Mock Meet by 5pm Today!

• We will again be offering Whole Pizza and Chick-fil-a Sandwiches for pre-order. See the TEAM STORE for options and get orders in by 5pm TODAY
• Moving forward we will post the meet dinner order on the Wednesday before a home meet. All orders will need to be placed by the Friday before a meet.

T-Shirts & Swim Team Swag

• All of the sponsor shirts as well as swim caps will be handed out on Tuesday at the Mock Meet. The additional swag (new shirts, hoodies and tanks) will be delivered soon. We apologize for the delay on this order.

Bicycles

• For the most part, we have done a great job - but if your athlete rides a bike or similar to practice, please remind them to use the bike rack and keep us in good grace with the HOA and neighbors
