Gator Updates: Week of 6/3

  • Dual Meet on Saturday 6/8 at GMSC. Warm up @ 6am / start @ 7am. We are swimming against Applewood Knolls and they have a HUGE team. Our last meet ended at 11am (with a small team). Plan for this meet to possibly go until 1:00pm)
  • Quick reminder our parent expectations during the meet: Please help your swimmer get to the heating shed when their event is called. After that, the Shed Boyz will take over and get them situated into their heat and onto the deck for their event. Unless you are a Timer, parents should not be in the heating shed or behind the blocks. It is VERY crowded on deck and we need to keep the kids organized and keep the deck as clear as possible. Thank you for your assistance.
  • Volunteer sign up for the meet: click here (we are currently short 23 people)
  • Iron Gator: We like to encourage swimmers to try every event in their age category and we recognize this achievement at our end of the year banquet. If your swimmer competes in every event in their age division and receives a time (DQ’s do not count), they will be an Iron Gator! The coaches will work with your kids to attempt this, but we understand that all kids are not ready. This could be a right-now goal for your swimmer or a future goal.
  • Upper Division Night Practices start this week: Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8:00pm – 9:00pm. These practice are for 13 and older swimmers only. Your swimmer can speak directly with Coach Ethan at practice for additional information.
  • Photos from our meets: you can find photos from our meets on our Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/greenmountaingators). We will also be printing out some of the photos to hang in our display board throughout the season. Have questions? Talk to Danielle or email us at gmstgators@gmail.com
