Helpful Tips & Reminders for Parents

  • Take a look through SwimTopia and gain some familiarity with it. If you don't understand something, please ask Carrie Tranter, the team's manager.
  • Each week, indicate your swimmer(s)' availability to swim. Mark availabilty as soon as possible, but certainly no later than the Wed. of that week. Coach Betsy is on a deadline to submit meet entries to the other team. 
  • If your availability changes and your swimmer is no longer available, please communicate that to Coach Betsy ASAP.
  • A meet program will be emailed to everyone by the Friday before a meet. The lineup is also available on your SwimTopia app.
  • Be familiar with what events your child is swimming each week before the morning of the meet, and make sure your child knows, as well. This includes relays! What your child may swim one week does not mean they will be swimming that next time.
  • If your child is young, new to swimming, or needs assistance, please help them get to the Clerk of Course in time for their events.
  • It is mandatory that families volunteer at meets. To make work shifts easier on everyone, we divide the meets into a first and second half. We ask every family to work 4 shifts. If you have signed up to volunteer that week, please check in with Erin Binner (volunteer coordinator) when you arrive at the meet and plan to report to your spot before the start of the meet. If you are unsure where to go or what to do, just ask Erin (or any veteran parent).
  • If you are at the meet and must scratch your event (aka: your swimmer can't stay to swim the event), please communicate that to Coach Betsy ASAP. It is unacceptable to leave and miss an event without telling anyone.
  • Please be on time to meet warmups. 

Chase Creek is a friendly group with many helpful people. If you have questions or concerns, don't be afraid to ask!
