Dear Parents,

It’s time for a few reminders and updates for everyone-

1. Please allow the coaches to coach your child/children. Parents should not be talking to or instructing their child during practice. Our coaches are there to take the lead, and can only really do so when your child is listening to them, not you! You can further help them out by making sure that your swimmer has everything they need before they head to the deck to meet up with their group.
2. No parents should be on deck or approaching coaches during practice time. Their time with your swimmer/s is limited, so we ask that you schedule a time outside of swim practice or email the coaches with any questions you may have. It is much easier to speak and address you when they are not running swim sets!
3. Our club has asked us to kindly remind everyone that Brookside is solely used for swim practice during our time there. We are not to use other areas of the club such as the volleyball or basketball courts. They ask that we be respectful of our grounds, and clean up before we leave. Please remind your swimmer that if they see garbage/something left behind, pick it up and put it where it belongs!
4. 4) Once a swimmer’s group is done, they need to gather their things and either wait in the pavilion or exit the club. Our club has allocated our time there for swim practice led by our coaches. No swimmer should remain in the pool after practice for any reason.

Thank you for your understanding and respect for our rules.

Sincerely,

Amy Ryan and Brookside Swim Team Coaches
