Muirfins Swim Team

Supplemental Lessons

June 29-July 4

Entries for next week at Olentangy due today!

The swimmers had so much fun at the Muirfins Relays! The rain held off, the coaches were amazing and the swimmers had the chance to compete for beads and bragging rights. A special thank you to Coach Kensley for organizing the relays this year!

Our home meet v. Atlantic was a big success and the Muirfins took the win! The results had a couple of glitches, so we have corrected some incorrect times and rerun the results and these should be posted soon under the meet on our team schedule. Running the meets with as many swimmers as we have is a crazy process, but we are incredibly lucky because our computer team - Kelly Coate, Brian Coate and Don Chen are simply the best.

The Muirfins return to the Dublin 4th of July Parade ths year! We are still on the hunt for a golf cart we can use for the parade journey. Please let us know if you have a golf cart we can borrow or know someone who may be willing to let us borrow one for the morning.

Thank you so much to all of you for volunteering your time to make all of these events happen.

Notes from the Coaches

• If you have questions about practice or meet events, please email your child’s age group coach. Our coaches all have busy schedules with sports, other jobs and activities, so please allow them 24 hours to respond during the week.
  • 13 and Up - Coach Ryan [email protected]
  • 11 and up - Coach Olivia [email protected]
  • 9/10 - Coach Madison [email protected]
  • 8 and Under - Coach Drew [email protected] and Coach Annika [email protected]
• All swimmers should come to practice with a water bottle every day. It is easy to forget to hydrate when in the water, but it is just as important.

• Parents are welcome to stay for practices, however it is important that you are not participating in the practices. Please allow the coaches to coach, it becomes confusing for swimmers and distracting for the coaches when parents are instructing from the sides.
• Please check your family folder this week for an order form from Michael’s Meats. All orders will be due by Monday, June 8th.

If you missed Muirfins 101, please take a minute to look over our presentation.
