Swimtopia App
SwimTopia’s mobile app is available to all members of a team using a SwimTopia website. Our Free mobile app shows a personalized view of your family’s volunteer signups and swim history, and includes great features to help keep parents better informed, like Notification Alerts.
Meet Mobile App
Meet Mobile is an app that you have to pay, but this one allows you to see the scores and times in "live time".
Trunk or Treat
Trunk or Treat is from 6-8pm. Setup is at 4:45 after practice.
We need bags of candy for trunk or treat … if you bring 2 bags of individual wrapped candy … then I will let you pick a preset to sit out of one of the days the following week (preset is all those crazy intervals that are sprints at the beginning).

A. A diver may become eligible for the State Meet using a 6-dive sheet or an 11-dive sheet.

If the 6-dive format is utilized and submitted, the first dive will continue to be from the group as specified by the NFHS and in the NFHS Rules Book. The first dive will maintain its assigned degree of difficulty, unless it is more than 1.8, in which case it will receive no more than 1.8 degree of difficulty. Dives 2-6 shall be one dive from each of the five (5) groups (forward, backward, reverse, inward, and twisting). The degree of difficulty of dives 2-6 when totaled shall be equal to or greater than 10.4 for both boys and girls. The score to be achieved must be 200 points or more.
- 11-DIVE FORMAT: If the 11-dive format is utilized and submitted, it shall be on the official 11-dive sheet.
