What a fantastic start to the season! As we look ahead to week 2, there are a few items I want everyone to be aware of:
- Our long-awaited parent meeting is on Tuesday night! (6:30 PM at WHS) We will meet in the Theater.
- Please remember to contact your specialty coach if you will be absent. This should be done at least 24 hours in advance, and you should include both Coach Debby and me. Remember that 3 unexcused absences could result in removal from the team.
- For our first meet at North Creek (3/19), we have been asked to verify how many students need transportation. Students are now allowed to transport themselves to district meets, though athletes must arrive on time, and parking may be limited. Please fill out this form to give us an idea of who would utilize the school-provided transportation. Here is the form: https://forms.gle/m5GZ5Xf3kqQbjgDP7
While last week the weather gave us a little bit of everything, this week looks particularly gloomy. On top of this, you are coming off your first week of training. Many of you are probably sore, and without a meet this week, motivation can be hard. It is so much easier to find an excuse, especially when it is raining (which might happen this week…). The second week is where the real work begins. You are not just training to become stronger in your events; you are also training to develop perseverance that you will benefit from long after high school. We have a week and a half until our first competition! What you do this week will decide your level of success next week, next month, and at the end of the season. So, let’s make it a good week.
