Meet 2 Announcements

Just a couple of announcements regarding the second meet and practices. 

This Saturday, May 23rd, we will be attending the KY Betty Smothers Invite at Port Allen High School (3553 Rosedale Rd, Port Allen, LA 70767). Events will begin at 9:00am. Please arrive BEFORE 8:00am. Last week they changed the schedule on us and pushed everything up. Some of our athletes missed their events. I do not want that to happen again so please arrive early.

The deadline to register for this weekend's meet is Thursday. Competing in these early meets gives us an idea of what we need to improve on before the big meets. If you have not done so already, please get your fees in so we can get in this valuable meet experience. If you are not attending the meet this weekend, please let me know before Thursday.

Practice begins at 6pm. If you arrive late to practice, remind your athlete that they need to HUSTLE. 

Also, please stay on your kids about being hydrated. It is going to get really hot this summer. Let's start healthy habits early. Please do not send your athlete to practice without water. I recommend purchasing a reusable sports bottle and freezing water every day to bring to practice.

That's all for this morning. Have a good day everyone.
