VOLUNTEERS
Selah Dolphins Swim team is a family-oriented sport and requires volunteer assistance to run every home meet. Each family will be responsible for volunteering at least two times per swimmer (with max being four times). Please show your support for the team and our swimmers by volunteering as much as you can. It is also fun! We will discuss the volunteering roles and what they entail at the parent meeting/ice-cream social. The meets run more efficiently and are shorter when volunteers show up. It's easy too!! We promise! The board is currently considering consequences if fulfillment of volunteer requirements is not met.
SWIM MEETS
All the swim meets for the season are listed on the schedule. Swimmers must sign up for events they plan on swimming on SwimTopia. You can go into each swim meet and indicate if the swimmer will be present, what events they plan on swimming, and if they will be available for a relay. The coaches will use this information to assign heats/lanes and set up relays. Please have your swimmers signed up by 7:00 AM the day of the meet. If your swimmer is not attending, please mark them as such in the Swim Topia app.
8 and under Swimmers: 8U swimmers do not have dedicated events for relays and Individual medley. Younger swimmers may start on the block, the pool deck, or in the water if they are not comfortable diving into the water. They only swim one length of the pool no matter size of pool.
Rain policy: We practice and compete in the rain. We don't enter the water if there is lightning or if the lifeguards determine it is unsafe, for example, if it is raining so hard, they can't see the bottom of the pool.
Meet nights can go late if they are swimming all 4 strokes (10:00 pm or later sometimes). Bring warm clothes, extra towels, and snacks. Yes, there is practice the next morning.
