ⓘ Please do not call the pool office to see if the pool is open. If it is only raining — all groups will train at their normal times.

ⓘ If there is thunder and lightning in the area –most pools have a “Thor guard” lightning detection system. When the alarm goes off, we must exit the pool and get off the pool deck as soon as possible. Bravo coaches will handle this occurrence as follows.

✅ If the alarm goes off while there is more than 45 minutes of practice left, we will take the team to a shelter area, until we can safely re-enter the pool, or practice is called off. While waiting for pool access, swimmers will participate in dry-land exercises in a safe area.
✅ If the alarm goes off while we are in the pool and there is only 15 minutes of practice or less left, swimmers will be dismissed from practice. In this case, a Bravo Coach will remain with the swimmers until they are picked up by their parents/guardians.
When the storms are being caused by a large system and weather looks to be the same over a longer time, we will cancel practices in a reasonable fashion.
✅ Tropical Weather – When a tropical storm is approaching, we will become subject to all school and pool policies regarding closures.

✅ Bravo swimmers will compete in USA sanctioned meets. We typically will compete in one meet per month. Coaches will decide on all entries for meets, so that we develop well-rounded swimmers. Swimmers will not swim their strongest events at every meet.
✅ For meet registration: ALL Team Bravo swimmers will be assumed to be participating. After swim meets are announced, parents will have a seven-day window to respond if their swimmer will not be able to attend. If parents do not respond, their swimmers will be entered in the meet. If swimmers do not show up for a swim meet and did not let the coaching staff know in the seven-day time span, no meet fees will be refunded.
✅ Meet fees vary by meet and will be detailed with each meet announcement.
Usually events are $5.00-$10 for individual events and usually $3 for relays
✅ In addition, Team BRAVO will have surcharges to help us to offset some meet expenses, credit card fees, coaches’ expenses, and at times – hotel fees. The invoices for the swim meet charges will be sent and need to be paid in full before the meet.
✅ The BRAVO swim meet surcharges are:
BRAVO JR $15 per day
Team BRAVO $20 per day
✅ There will also be several meets that require specific time qualifications. Our focus will be getting as many swimmers Junior Olympic, Senior Champ, and NCSA cuts as possible.
✅ All swimmers will have a “Championship Meet” of which they will rest for during the preceding weeks – in practice and at home. Swimmers will shave for this meet to reduce drag and depending on age – will wear technical suits.

Upon joining the team, there will be a one-time registration fee of $200. This fee includes two t-shirts and two caps.
