Gear pick up + practice starts next week!
Please swing by the Wilshire pool Monday 5/16 sometime between 6-7pm to pick up your swimmer's gear. We will have tshirts for all, and swim caps for those who would like them. We recommend caps for anyone with hair long enough to get in his/her eyes. The coaches can help with getting caps on at practice, so don't worry about that! Also, if you cannot make it to pick up your gear on Monday, feel free to have a friend pick it up for you OR you can get it at the first practice.
Our first practice is on Tuesday 5/17. Remember that the 1st 2 weeks of practice are shorter Tuesday and Thursday only practices, just to get our feet wet, literally and figuratively.
- 8 and younger: 5 to 5:30pm
- 9-12 year old: 5:30 to 6pm
- 13 and older: 6 to 6:30pm
Reminders for swimmers for practice:
- Use the restroom at home right before you leave
- Wear your bathing suit (your team one or any suit)
- Bring a towel and goggles, plus a cap if desired
- Goggles are a must - speedo Jr, speedo, Tyr brands are good!
Reminders for parents:
- Parenta are welcome to stay on the deck, but please don't coach your child during practice -- leave that to the coaches.
- If you have a question for the coaches, please ask before of after (not during) practice so that coaches can focus on the swimmers. Or you can email.
- Please be patient as the coaches assess and adjust the first few days of practice.
- You are responsible for your swimmer before and after practice as well as if he/she gets out to use the restroom.
Remember that all of the summer practice and meets dates/times are on the website: wilshirewahoos.swimtopia.com
Let me know if you have any other questions that are not answered on the website. We look forward to starting the season!
Go Wahoos!!!
Coach Susan
