Hi Stingrays, Here are your weekly updates! Stroke and Turn Clinic If you would like to satisfy your volunteer job requirement by working as a stroke and turn judge at meets, the team needs you! We desperately need parents to get certified as we are required to provide stroke and turn judges at all meets. Working as a stroke and turn judge is a great way to help the team out, fulfill your volunteer requirement, learn the rules of swimming, and answer the question "why did my kid get disqualified?"...

Hi Team, We were able to reschedule our team suit fittings to tomorrow, Friday, March 31st, from 4:30-6:00pm at James Lemos Pool. We will have both the Arena and the Dolfin suits to try on. In case you missed it, here is the link to the team's suit page. Also, if you can not make it to the fitting and you need to size your swimmer, please go asap to Elsmore Swim Shop in Walnut Creek for an individual fitting (and note they are closed on Sunday). Once you know...

Hi Team, Unfortunately, Elsmore has called off the team suit fitting for tomorrow due to the rain. We are working behind the scenes to try to reschedule something as soon as possible so please be on the lookout for that NewsSplash update. Remember that if you are unable to make whatever fitting we will hopefully have rescheduled, you can always go in person to the Elsmore shop in Walnut Creek for an individual fitting. Elsmore is located on Treat Boulevard, close to the freeway, and not near the downtown traffic....

Sorry for the second email but clarification of 6/under practice times is needed! If you registered your 6/under for Stingrays in the first batch of sign-ups (your child was not placed on the wait list), then their practice time is 4:00-4:30. If your 6/under was first placed on the waitlist to register AND you got an email inviting your child to register for the 4:30-5:00 time, then your child is in the 4:30-5:00 practice group. If you have not received a specific email inviting you to register for the 4:30-5:00...
