All RHS Swim Team members are expected to comply with the Attendance policy for the season: (November 6th to the last meet of the SEASON) Parents: Please help the coaching staff by scheduling Doctor’s appointments outside of practice time so your son or daughter is at practice – We only have an hour of daily practice.
PRACTICE IS MANDATORY – IT IS NOT AN OPTION
Communication is ESSENTIAL – in Today’s world – an email can be sent in seconds. . . IF YOU CHOOSE TO MISS A SWIM MEET (Exception-illness, family emergency, religious) YOU WILL be asked to SIT OUT ONE MEET for every meet you miss.
Club or Y swimmers are expected to be at your own daily swim practice during the RHS season (Please email me your coaches contact information so I may email them in regards to this policy). Otherwise I expect you to be at RHS Swim Team practice.
