Freshmen-Sophomore Invitational information |

Good afternoon. We hope everyone is settled after the exciting meet yesterday evening. As previously mentioned at the parent meeting, Apex will once again be participating in the Freshmen-Sophomore Invitational sponsored by Winston-Salem State University. The meet will take place on Saturday December 12th, 2009. Apex will be leaving the parking lot at 6:15 in the morning and returning tentatively around 6:30 pm. Please note that it is an all day event. Depending on how many heats and swimmers participate in the meet, it can run longer or shorter than expected. However, we will make sure that each swimmer is in contact with their parent/guardian about the status of the meet in the afternoon. We will also make sure that each parent knows around what time exactly we will be returning to Apex High School. Again, this meet is a fun and beneficial experience for the freshmen and sophomores on our team. Attached you will find a parental permission form, a wish list of what event your swimmer would like to swim at the meet, and a list of events in the order they will take place. Please look over it, and return the permission slip (both if you are going to participate or not) and the wish list (if you are participating) to Coach Kane in POD-C by Tuesday November 24th, 2009.

Swim Team Important Information |
Posted:
10/12/2009 9:01 AM |
|
Hello swim team candidates and family members!
I can’t believe that swim season is right around the corner. Hopefully, you are all as excited about this season as we are. Coach Kane and I wanted to try to find a way to share information with everyone in as succinct a manner as possible and thought that a letter with highlights was the way to go. We were waiting until the yearly coaches meeting was held before posting the information to make sure it was as accurate as possible. This letter will remain on the team website for the entire season so if you ever forget or need a reminder, it will be there for you to see.
1. Try-outs will be held starting November 2. The try-out and practice dates and times are as follows: Monday, Wednesday and Friday will be from 5:45 AM – 7:00 AM; Tuesday, Thursday and Friday from 2:40 PM – 4:00 PM. All practices and try-outs are held at the Cary YMCA.
2. EVERYONE MUST ATTEND TRY-OUTS!!! Year-round swimmers need to decide whether to attend on Thursday or Friday for timed trials. Simply submitting your time from a previous meet does not count.
3. Attendance at practice is MANDATORY! Try to schedule doctor appointments, group meetings and other personal items on Monday or Wednesday afternoons, NOT Tuesdays, Thursdays or Fridays. With a split time practice schedule, you should not have to miss a practice.
4. Attention year-round swimmers: Attendance at the practice the day prior to a meet is MANDATORY this year. The reason for this is that we feel that our relay teams need time together to work on starts, turns and timing and this is the most efficient way to make this happen.
5. Anyone who fails to attend a practice the day before a meet WILL NOT COMPETE in the meet the following day.
6. The meet schedule is already posted on the website. MARK THOSE DATES NOW!!!! All swimmers and divers are expected to attend their meets as scheduled. Failure to attend a meet will result in not being able to earn a letter for the season.
7. Please make sure that you have read the policy regarding “fast suits”. In summary, any suit that adds buoyancy is illegal. For men, this means the suit may not come above the waist or below the knees. For ladies, the shoulders and neck cannot be covered. More details are included in the letter from the National Federation of High School Athletics.
8. Anyone who is not sure what size swim suit they need can see Coach Kane the week of October 26th to use the suit fit kit and get their measurements. Order forms will be handed out once the team has been announced. Orders will include swim suits, sweat shirts and pants and the team t-shirt. Caps are provided by the school at no cost to team members.
9. Every athlete who earns a place on the team has the ability to earn a letter for their participation. Lettering criteria is based on: practice attendance, meet attendance and having a regional qualifying time in an event. If a swimmer has a qualifying time for the regional meet yet does not swim that event, they are still eligible to earn their letter for the season.
