Attention to all Senior 1 & 2 swimmers:  The swimmers on this list have turned in their registration forms as of August 19th and are on the team for the 2009-10 season.  Unless you have talked to Coach Barbara about your impending registration, additional spaces for more registrations are not guaranteed as of this date.  As a result, the Senior 1 & 2 groups have been somewhat combined and we have revised the practice schedule - please be advised!  All Senior 1/2 swimmers will swim on Sunday, Monday, Wednesday, Saturday.  Senior 1/2 swimmers will then be assigned to either Tuesday or Thursday - the group will be split in half.  Swimmers will have to remain on their assigned Tuesday or Thursday and will not be able to switch or substitute.  If there are any requests for days due to other activities, please email with that information - it will be taken into consideration when setting up the Tues/Thur split.  That schedule will be distributed and posted in early September.   More information & an email will be sent soon.
