Currently, we have 19 NEW families that will be joining the STINGRAY NATION this year.  We are grateful these families will be swimming with the RAYS this summer.

Swimmer 2016 TEAM T-shirts will be handed out at the 6/4/16 time trials swim meet.  Please NOTE!!!! this year we will only be ordering T-shirts for the Swimmers and ANY T-Shirts PRE-ORDERED / PRE-PAID.  This means if any parents want T-shirts we must know prior to 5/30/16 when the T-shirt order will be place.   I hope you got to see this years T-shirt example at registration.  Another incredible design by Tami Barrett and the Coaches.  Thanks TEAM.

Any new or veteran families wanting to know why we do what we do, please come Monday night 5/23/16 after drylands to hear Coach Ben Whiteside and Chet Carbaugh explain the team structure and expectations.

WHO are LITTLE RAYS -  ALL swimmers 10 and UNDER that have NEVER swam with the Sugarwood Stingrays Swim Team MUST come to the scheduled Little RAYs practice time on Tuesday 5/31/16 at 11:30 am.  All other swimmers come to swimmer age practice schedule times.  Coach Ben will be sending out an email specifically about this upcoming weeks practice, so be on the lookout for this email.

TEAM and Individual picture day will be on 6/4/16 prior to the time trials swim meet, please note to make a special effort to make this swim meet and be in the team picture.

THE SEASON HAS STARTED!!!!!

The first dryland practice is Monday 5/23/16 from 5PM to 6PM at the pool.  Coach Ben asks all TEAM members participating to bring (running shoes,shorts, shirt, towel and water bottle). 

For the next Two and a Half months we will be running on High RAYoctane.  So be ready...  As always save the TEAM website to your favorites it is a great location to keep up on TEAM notices.  Chet Carbaugh will be emailing you regarding general TEAM information and Coach Ben will be emailing you about TEAM SWIMMER information.  SWSR Meet Directors will be emailing you about swim meet parent volunteer positions.   If the Website or emails do not have you informed enough than call any of us.  Please consider going on the team website and sinking the SWSR calendar with your calendar.  Directions can be found in the calendar section of the website.
