Our season is rolling along quickly, so we’re going to schedule team pictures for the next 2 weeks. Since it would take too much time to get each swimmer’s individual picture at the same time, we’re going to divide them up into 2 groups. We’re hoping that this scenario will work out for everyone.
Lisa Feliciano has generously offered to handle this undertaking and will be donating ALL profit back to our swim team to purchase equipment, awards, and the rental for the banquet venue. By keeping the prices low, this should be a win-win for everyone. If you would like to capture your child’s involvement in the swim team this year, please show up at the times listed below. The order form is attached, and we wanted to get the schedule out to you ASAP. Thursday, June 23 – Individual pictures for swimmers with the last name from A-L 11 and over - 5:00 10 and under – 6:30 Tuesday, June 28 – Individual pictures for swimmers with the last name from M-Z 11 and over - 5:00 10 and under – 6:30 Thursday, June 30 – Team picture before meet – 4:00 Don’t be late! We’d like to have everyone included. Tuesday, July 5 – Individual make-ups 5:30-6:30 If your family consists of children who attend both practice times, please reply if you would like BOTH of them to take their “individual” picture together and we will find a time that works. We’re trying to minimize the amount of time you and your children will need to wait to have their picture taken.

Just a reminder that our morning (M W F) practices start this Friday 10 June at 7:30a. Make sure to check the Calendar to know when your age group will be practicing. Also our first meet is this Saturday at Pace Island (directions are also on the Calendar event) and you can print your own copy of the Heat Sheet off from the Forms page.
Lastly, Parents, don't forget to fill in any empty spaces we are required to fill at both Home and Away swim meets by clicking on the Swim Team Volunteer Sign-ups on the Calendar page. Spots that aren't filled in by Thursday night will be "volunteered," so we appreciate your taking initiative! Thanks!! It's sad but true that we are no longer taking registrations for the 2011 season as of last Friday. The great news is that our team is now just over 100 strong (almost 50% growth over last year) and we have added another Assistant Coach to help Coach Kate. We're looking forward to another great season! See you poolside.
If you have not yet had your child sized for their team swim suit, you will need to do so ASAP as the order is about to be placed. Sizings take place at the Acquatics offices located at the Plantation Oaks Amenity Center, Monday thru Friday 9a-5p (except for this Tuesday which will be 9a-4p). Please email Becky Eddy at [email protected] with any questions.
Reminder that the Oakleaf Orca Swim Team will be accepting registrations from both residents as well as those outside of the Oakleaf Community. Of course, residents will have priority through May 15th and registrations will continue to be taken until May 27th. We're really looking forward to a great year this year out our new pool located at the Plantation Oaks facility!
We are having a great time with the kids who are participating in the new year-round program at Cecil Field on Mondays and Wednesdays from 6:15-7:30p. We've been able to spend more time working on conditioning as well as the basics of starts and turns plus improving strokes. If you are interested in getting your child involved, email me at [email protected].
For the first time this year, the Oakleaf Orca Swim Team will be accepting registrations from outside of the Oakleaf Community. Of course, residents will have priority through May 15th and the team size will have to be capped at 80 this year until our new pool is finished (for next year's season). Due to league rules, all registrations must be submitted by June 1st. We're really looking forward to a great year this year!

RulesThis is a place to report good news, practice tips rather than as a place to complain. In general, pass negatives up to the Head Coach and positives to everyone! Archives
