Good morning, Killer Whales!!

This email is to inform you about some upcoming changes to the Killer Whales' morning practice schedule. 

Our morning practices have not been as well attended as our evening sessions historically. In response to your feedback regarding the proposed 2025 morning schedule, we are making the following changes with the goal of increasing morning participation and better balancing swimmer numbers between morning and evening practices. 

Starting this Saturday, May 24th, we will be trialing the following morning practice schedule:

* 8:30 AM - 9:15 AM:  All age group Practice 1 

* 9:30 AM - 10:15 AM:  All age group Practice 2 

Swimmers can choose to attend either Practice 1 or Practice 2, regardless of age.

Our coaches will be dividing the swimmers by age and ability levels during these sessions, ensuring that everyone continues to work on skills appropriate for their development.  We want to assure you that we do not plan to combine all age groups into a single practice group. 

Once weekday morning practices begin on June 16th, this schedule will also be in effect for Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday mornings. 

Please also note that the schedule for the Saturday morning Skills Clinics run by MOR, RSA, TAC, and WAVE will be determined by the year-round swim team coaches. We encourage you to check the events calendar on our website for the specific details before each clinic. 

Thank you for your understanding and patience as we implement this new schedule. 

We value the feedback from our coaches and families and will be open to making any necessary adjustments based on how things progress.
