JHSR - Pre-Competitive Session 2 (Winter)

We’ve had a great start this year in pre-competitive Session 1, which ends on November 19.  Thanks to everyone for making it a success!

Session 2 will begin on December 1 and run through February 4, with a 2-week break over the winter holidays.  Practice will be Tuesdays/Thursdays from 5:30-6:30, until January 26, when we move to a 5:45 start time for the last 2 weeks of practice.  We hope to hold our Sweetheart meet on February 6-7 to cap off Session 2.

Registration for Session 2 opens on Thursday, November 19.  Watch the blog for a registration link at 9:00 a.m. on Thursday morning.  The cost for Session 2 will be $200 (paid monthly).  When you register, if you are new to Stingrays this year, please be sure to pay the $10 Wyoming LSC fee, and the USA Swimming membership fee.  If you do not pay the LSC and USA Swimming fees, your child will not be registered, and the first waitlisted swimmer with take the spot.  You can either choose to add the cost of your kickboard, or bring your own to the first day of practice.  

If it is your first time swimming with Stingrays this school year, you will be required to attend a mandatory parent meeting during the first practice.  At that time, we will discuss in detail the health and safety protocol and ask all families to acknowledge and sign the protocol and release.  Please review both.  If you are unable to agree to the terms of either, please do not register your child.  We will also distribute kick boards (if purchased during registration) and fins (to be returned at the end of the session).  Swimmers will not share equipment, and it will be the swimmers’ responsibility to bring these items to every practice. If your child must miss practice or if practice must be cancelled for any health or safety reason, no refunds will be available.

If you have questions, please reach out to the Board at jhstingrayboard@gmail.com.  We look forward to talking with you!
