Dear Sharks Parents,

Our 2024 SCF Sharks practice meet is tomorrow! 

Family Set up:

We will have our team's family set up in the grass behind the concessions area. Due to all the recent rain, this area will be muddy. We recommend bringing a tarp to lay down under your tents.

Swimmer Check In:

Swimmers are asked to arrive at the pool by 7:00 am. They must check in by 7:25 am at the latest. Any swimmer checked in after 7:30 am runs the risk of being scratched for the entire meet. Swimmer Check-In is located in the area between the concessions and the pool gate in front of the bathrooms. Look for one of our Junior Coaches. Swimmers will receive a slip with the events they are swimming. Swimmers should then check in with their coaches by 7:30 am for instructions for warm ups. Coaches will be set up on the far side of the pool deck closest to the starting blocks.

Volunteers and Volunteering:

Since this is a practice meet, we will have only one shift. Volunteers need to check in with Nora, our Volunteer Coordinator as soon as you check in your swimmer(s) for the meet. Our Volunteer Coordinator will be located in the area between the concessions, clubhouse area, next to the swimmer check-in. If you are volunteering in a position you have never done before, you will be put in contact with the right person to get you situated in your duties.

If you are volunteering for setup on Friday night, we will be meeting in the pool area at 9 pm and will hopefully be done within 90 minutes or so. If you are volunteering for setup on Saturday morning, please report to the concessions area by 6 am on Saturday morning.
