Hello Westwood Waves! It's unfortunate we couldn't all be at the pool enjoying time with our new swim team friends! The weather is looking good for next weekend when we have our first big event. Please see below for more information.

Westwood Waves Time Trials

June 4 From 9:00am-11:00am

We are excited to host time trials for the 2023 season! Please bring your swimmer to this fun event. Everyone is offered and encouraged to swim all events and strokes to establish base line times for the season. There will be donuts and team time for the kids and a parent meeting afterwards.

WHAT ARE TIME TRIALS?

• -a fun event where new swimmers can experience what it is like to swim in a meet
• -an opportunity at the beginning of the season to get a benchmark time so you and your coaches can track your improvement over the season
• -a way for coaches to know which events you should swim at the meet

PLEASE REGISTER so we know how many swimmers to expect.
