Thank you for a fantastic 2011 - 2012 season!
Spring Practice (Off-Season Training)
The Heidelberg Sea Lions' Spring swimming will begin on Tuesday, April 17. Spring practice will be held on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 15:00 - 17:00 (3-5pm) at the BLZ pool -- the same regular practice pool where practice was held during the swim season.
- If you are a registered team member from the 2011 - 2012 season, please come when you can. This is simply off-season training to stay in shape for next year.
- If you know someone who was not on the team last year but whois a competent swimmer and wants to train with us, please have them first contact Coach Ashley or Kim Herndon.
- There will be no bus service for these practices. Please contact Kim Herndon if you need assistance coordinating with a car pool group from/to PHV.
Note: for those moving to Wiesbaden this summer, the Wiesbaden swim team is having Spring training as well, and has offered to let our swimmers join them. If any of you who are moving want to get in touch with the Wiesbaden team, please contact Kim Herndon (efslsealions@yahoo.com).
