  1. SFHS Swim Team Information Session 9/10/14 We are… South Forsyth!

  2. Meet Our Coaches • Head Coach • Corinna Spurlock: cspurlock@forsyth.k12.ga.us • Assistant Coach • Paige Fairbanks: pfairbanks@forsyth.k12.ga.us

  3. Meet Our Captains • Blake Atmore • Averi Lewis • Riley Geoghan • Katie Purdy

  4. How do I make the team? • Attend time trials • Club swimmers may give me times from club team • Do you have previous swimming experience?

  5. Upcoming Dates to Remember • 10/1 Current Physical Form and Concussion Form Due • 10/13 Women's Time Trials at CAC 6:15am-7:15am • 10/14 Male Time Trials at CAC 6:15am-7:15am • 10/20 First Day of Practice • We will have a kickoff party the first weekend in the season, and will be hosting spaghetti dinners throughout the season.

  6. Practice Schedule • Practice Starts October 20th • Monday 6:15am-7:15am at the Cumming Aquatic Center (CAC) • Tuesday 6:45am-7:30am Conditioning at SFHS (Conditioning ends January 13th) • Wednesday 6:15am-7:15am at CAC • Thursday 5:30am-6:30am at Dynamo Swim Club 

  7. Athlete Expectations • You are a student-athlete, not an athlete-student. You must maintain satisfactory grades, attendance and attitude in all of your classes to participate with a minimum of 2.5 grade point average. • Some of the meets will be capped this year so not all of the swimmers will be able to participate in each meet. This is a varsity team so those with the fastest times will be entered in those meets (tba). • 90% attendance is mandatory for lettering consideration. • ALL CLUB swimmers must check in with Coach Spurlock at 8am on Tuesdays after or during conditioning. • Club swimmers must attend at least 5 practices throughout the season. • Deliberately skipping a meet will result in suspension from the team. • If another high school sport overlaps swimming at the beginning of the season practices will not be mandatory until the prior sport has concluded. (note needed from coach)

  8. Practice Expectations • Swimmers need to be in the water promptly at the start of practice. Practices are only 1 hour- every minute counts! • Keep open-lines of communication – with team captain and coaches. Any negativity will be promptly addressed.

  9. Meet Expectations/Sportsmanship • Swimmers must wear their team suits and their team caps – swimmers may wear their fast skins and dome caps for the county and state meets. • Know which events you are swimming and be on time to each event. IF YOU ARE ENTERED INTO AN EVENT BUT MISS IT YOU WILL BE CHARGED THE COST OF THE EVENT – USUALLY AROUND $5. • Relays MUST be swum in the order designated by the coaches – the heat sheets will not always be right • Cheer for all of your teammates • At the conclusion of each race, shake hands with the opposing swimmer next to you. • Be on time for the busses to away meets. If you are late, you will be left behind. • All athletes are required to be on the bus to and from designated meets. Buses will be provided for the following meets: • 11/7 @ Collins Hill High School Aquatic Center • 12/12 Meet vs. Cambridge • County Meet • State Meet • In the event you absolutely have to go home with a parent – the parent must inform Coach Spurlock. Last year several swimmers left without communicating this. • As in practice, everyone stays to help clean up the pool; no one leaves until everything is done!
