Turkey Relays - Tuesday, 11/25/25
If you are new to the team this year, all of our 12 and Under swimmers are together for this fun team building practice, and you don’t want to miss it! Parents might even stay and watch the zany action from the balcony. We are trying to beat the 13 & Over group with more non-perishable food donations, so remember to bring your food items to donate!
Swim-a-Long Fundraiser
Our winter fundraiser is underway (please see the Gator Blast for details and donations), and it culminates in the Swim-a-Long on Saturday, 12/6/25. Our group will swim together during our scheduled time slot, 11am - 12pm, and we see how many laps each swimmer can swim in that hour. There are snacks, music, prizes for longest swim distances, and more team fun.
Practice Change
FYI - the practice on Friday, 11/21/25, will be cancelled on the schedule - due to the MSS travel meet that runs that Fri/Sat/Sun.

T1/T2 Resources
Building Entrances
Please note that the practice locations (usually Brookfield East and Brookfield Central) have more specific entrance expectations than in the past.
- Brookfield East: Enter always by the W2 fieldhouse doors.
- Brookfield Central: Enter in the main front doors (give yourself 5 extra minutes, it is a longer walk to the pool).
- Saturdays at Central: Enter through north/east entrances by the Fieldhouse from the north side of the building.
Practice Information
Please make sure your athlete is ready each practice on time with the required equipment (find the list in the T1/T2 expectations page).
When you see a “w” listed on the practice schedule, that lets you know that we will be doing dryland exercises that day and your swimmer should be wearing sneakers.
Parents at Practice
As a reminder, parents are not allowed on the deck or in locker rooms at any time during practice. We will make sure the balcony is open if you would like to stay and observe practice. Please refrain from coaching, communicating with swimmers, or video recording during practice - we want to swimmers to stay connected and attentive during practice, rather than distracted.
Meet Information
Meet events for the meets you commit to are entered by the coaches usually a few weeks in advance of the meet. You can see what they are by going to the event page on the app/website, and looking at your commitment for that meet. After the meet entries are sent in to the host club, I cannot make edits to events, so please verify your swimmer’s events early and let me know if you see an issue.
If you have questions on what to expect for your swimmer's first meet and how to prepare, read this document, Swim Meets 101.
