Welcome Dolphins!
Dear Briarhills Dolphins,
Welcome to the 2023 Dolphins Swim Team! Can you believe summer is almost here and that our first day of practice is next week? We hope all of our Dolphins are eager and ready to start swimming!
We are happy to announce Hannah Dvorachek and Megan McKay as our Head Coaches this year. Hannah is graduating from St. Agnes Academy and Megan is graduating from Westside High School. Both ladies coached our team last year and we are so happy they are returning to lead our team again this summer.
In addition to Hannah and Megan, we are also welcoming back coaches Adam Aly, Noah Mosvold, Lance Brewster and Amelia Gu. New to the coaching team this year is Assistant Coach Sadie Snook.
The coaches are anxious to welcome all of our new and returning swimmers! Our first official day of practice for ALL swimmers is next Wednesday, May 10th at the Briarhills Pool. Please check the team calendar for your swimmer's practice time. The calendar is located on the calendar page of our website at briarhillsdolphins.swimtopia.com.
FOR FAMILIES NEW TO SWIM TEAM ONLY:
The Newcomers Meeting is this Saturday, May 6th. This is a mandatory informational meeting for first year parents only. At least one parent should attend the parent meeting. Returning parents do NOT need to attend.
The meeting will start promptly at 9:00 a.m. and will finish by 10:30 a.m. Please do not be late. We will meet at the picnic tables in front of the Briarhills Pool – 14300 Briarhills Parkway. Children are welcome to play on the playground during the meeting. Please bring a lawn chair so that you can have a comfortable seat during the meeting. We will be covering a lot of information.
Swimmers new to the team are encouraged to attend practice on Monday, May 8th and Tuesday, May 9th. These days are reserved for new swimmers only so that they can practice with the coaches before the whole team starts on Wednesday, May 10th.
Swimmer try-outs will be conducted during practices on Monday, May 8th and Tuesday, May 9th. Please try to attend at least one of these practice sessions. Female swimmers should wear a one piece swimsuit to practice. Male swimmers may wear jammers or swim trunks. All swimmers should bring goggles and a towel. More information to come during the newcomers meeting!
We are looking forward to a fun season and can't wait to see all of our Dolphins next week at the pool!
Go Dolphins!
