On to week two of summer swim.

Afternoon Practices Continue: After a rainy first week of practice we continue with our afternoon practice schedule this week. Please continue to have your swimmer(s) attend their assigned practice slot unless Coach Pat has given instructions to the contrary.

Time Trials: Saturday morning is our Time Trials meet where swimmers are afforded the opportunity to swim all four strokes (freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke, and butterfly) for a time.

  • Swimmer Declaration: ALL SWIMMERS need to declare if they ARE OR ARE NOT planning to attend along with the strokes they are planning to swim at this link before Tuesday 6/4/24 at 11:59 PM.
  • Volunteer Sign-up: If you declare your swimmer for the event please sign up for a job your family can complete during the meet here. We will need a lot of volunteers for this event, including 18 people to time (3 timers per lane).
  • Warm-up times for Time Trials:
Afternoon Practice Group A7:35am - 7:50am
Afternoon Practice Group B
7:35am - 7:50am
Afternoon Practice Group C7:35am - 7:50am
Afternoon Practice Group D7:15am - 7:30am
Afternoon Practice Group E7:15am - 7:30am

The meet itself will start promptly at 8:00am. Our Coaches will make sure your swimmers are getting to the right place before their events.

Plan accordingly for a chilly morning at the pool. You will probably want to bring your swimmer with a chair and some clothes to put on over their suits when they aren’t swimming. Extra towels won’t be a bad idea. Nobody will make fun of you for bringing a blanket.

Lastly a meet sheet will be available here prior to Saturday that you may download and print or view on your mobile device. This document will allow you to know when your swimmer is swimming so you can watch.

Stroke & Turn Clinics: The Greenbriar Dolphins could still use a couple more Stroke & Turn Judges. Please consider attending one of the remaining clinics offered this year, no experience is neccessary. There will be two more sets of clinics offered this year. On Sunday June 9th at 8:00 AM the clinic will be offered at Sully Station II, 5501 Sully Park Drive, Centreville, VA 20120. On Wednesday June 12th at 7:00 PM the clinic will be offered at Sully Station, 5101 Sequoia Farms Drive, Centreville, VA 20120.

Team Apparel Pickup: The apparel coordinators plan on having the team apparel at this Friday's Ice Cream Social, so please plan on picking yours up if you attend.
