Fall 2010 - 2011 Returning Swimmer Registration Info.

Fall 2010-2011 Returning Age Group and Senior Swimmer Registration

I would first like to thank all of the families that participated with RICE Aquatics through out the year. The team experienced great growth in numbers and families and new successes in and out of the pool this past year. RICE swimmers excelled at every level from Sectionals to local Summer League swim meets. We are excited to keep the momentum going for the 2010 - 2011 season.
Listed below are the dates for our returning swimmer week of practice. This will be used to place swimmers in new groups and get everyone registered for the start of the fall session prior to having new swimmer registration. 
Returning Age Group and Senior Swimmer Registration:
August 23rd - 25th. (Practice times TBA)
Swimmers will swim in the groups they were previously placed in and be evaluated and placed through out the week. These practices will not introduce new ideas or be used for training instead they will be offered to get swimmers back into the mix prior to taking in new swimmers. It is essential that if your swimmer is going to participate on the club they attend as many practices this week as possible. If you are unable to attend please send me an email. Practice times and dates will be posted on our website as well as the new blog and news features.
We are still confirming with the Rec Center our official start date but we are again looking at the week after Labor day. More info will be available as we get closer. Our groups, practice times and dates will also be emailed out and posted once available.
By committing to this event you are "tentatively" committing to participating in the 2010 Fall Session. This is tentative because no swimmer will be officially placed or registered until the end of the returning swimmer week. As a result no payments will be taken until the end of the Returning Swimmer Registration period. The coaching staff is using this event sign up to have preliminary numbers of swimmers to ensure a smooth and seamless transition into the fall session.
As always if you have any questions please send me an email.
See you guys at the pool,
Coach Jason and the RICE Aquatics Coaching Staff.

The coaching staff is selected by the Head Zones coach from all applicants and is considered a great complement among the coaching piers. Way to go Coach Kyle.
