Attendance at Team Workouts

As masters swimmers, we all have incredibly busy lives and attending workouts can be quite challenging as we try to juggle work, family, other pursuits, and hopefully, occasional down time! To squeeze workouts in really can be an accomplishment in and of itself. As your coach, I’m grateful when each of you can make it to practice and when I get to see you a few times a month. Some of you are absolutely amazing in your attendance, and I thought it would be kind of neat to list the top 3 swimmers for attendance each month, and then have a cumulative total running for each year. The top in attendance each month are awarded a prize, so make it a goal one month to attend as many as you can and see if you can land the prize!

There are two other times prizes are awarded for attendance. At the end of every calendar year (end of 2009, end of 2010, etc.) prizes are awarded to the Top 10 in attendance for the year. And, prizes are issued at the end of June every year for the Top 10 in attendance for the previous year, July through June, as this celebrates our yearly anniversary (we started on July 13, 2009).

Additionally, we have one more attendance award. This is the coveted “100 Club”. For every 100 workouts you attend, your name goes here and you receive a “100 Club” bag tag from your grateful coach! 100 workouts is a big commitment and we now have several in the 100 club, one in the 200 club and one in the 300 club.
