Sherborn Snappers

The first 10 minutes of practice will be an organized warm-up. Everyone must stretch and warm up before swimming. Practice will start promptly so punctuality is appreciated. Each practice we will be working on stroke technique and building endurance. If a swimmer desires to attend a practice for an age group other than his/her assigned one due to a schedule conflict, this will be at the coaches’ discretion, based on a swimmer’s ability and space permitting.

Practices are held on Monday, Wednesday and Friday at Farm Pond.

• 3:45 - 4:30 8 and unders
• 4:15 - 5:15 9 and 10s
• 5:00 - 6:15 11 and 12s, 13 and ups

* Please do your best to arrive 10 minutes early so that we can get  get started on time!

Meets

• Meets are held on Tuesday's and Thursday's. Please check website calendar for locations and times. 
• Also, it is critical that prior to each meet you mark whether the swimmer will be able to attend or not on the Snappers website.

Additional Notes

• There will be practice every day of the week until the meets begin. Once meets begin we will follow the above schedule.
• We know that summer can be SUPER busy, we just ask that swimmers make it to as many practices and meets as possible during the season.

Additional stroke clinics: will be offered per age group as the coaching staff assesses the need.

Private swim instruction: Please contact any member of the coaching staff directly if you are interested in scheduling mutually convenient private lessons for your swimmer. 

Missing Practice: It is not necessary to notify the coach if a swimmer is going to miss an occasional practice. It is appropriate to let the coach know if he/she will be gone for a long period of time due to illness or vacation!!

If poor weather (thunder, lightening, heavy rain) necessitates changes in the usual Snappers schedule (cancellation, delayed start of practice or a meet), an email notification will be sent to all families by 3 PM. A notice of the change will also be posted on the Snappers website by 3 PM.
