Novice, Straehle, and Divisionals Explained

The Novice Meet will be held at Wynnewood Swim Club -- Time TBD. This meet is designed for swimmers who are not usually in the fastest heat and do not usually place in dual meets. The qualification times are listed as “no faster than . . .”.

***The events and individual swimmer’s times are posted by the swim team bulletin board. It is a multi-team event with lots of music, good food, and of course fast swimming!

The Straehle Invitational Swim Meet will be held at the 4 Seasons Sports Complex -- Time TBD. This meet is an elite championship meet that swimmers must meet a pre-determined qualifying standard. Swimmers compete against other swimmers from all teams in the Central Maryland Swim League.

***The swimmers who have qualified are listed on the bulletin board and will be notified by Coach Justin.

The Divisional Championship Meet will be held at South Carroll Swim Club -- Time TBD. This meet is the final meet of the swim season against all teams in Division 3. The top 4 Wahoos swimmers in each event will compete against the other teams in our division.

***Please check Coach’s clipboard and swimmer ranking. EVERYONE (regardless of ranking) should verify if you are available by circling the events your child would like to swim or cross your swimmers name off the list if they are not available.
