Attendance
To continue to be an athlete in good-standing, an athlete must
make every attempt to attend all practices.
If an athlete must miss a practice it must be with parental and coach
consent. The coaches will make every
effort to be flexible and fair in this regard, but the athlete should recognize
their responsibility to not abuse this effort. Each swimmer is required to attend 5 of the 7 weekly practices.
