Improvement Sheets
Our coaches truly appreciate the hard work that goes into individual achievement in the sport of swimming. They recognize each swimmer's time improvements as vital to the development of his or her goals and abilities as well as the success of the team. They show this appreciation, in part, by tracking each swimmer's improvements. For every three improvements the swimmer receives a ribbon recognizing the achievement. Your coaches have set a goal for every swimmer to realize nine (9) or more improvements this summer (individual events and relay split times). Swimmer progress will be posted on the Swim Team Bulletin Board. You can do it!
The coaches encourage swimmers to keep track of their own time improvements as well. An individual improvement chart can be downloaded here in PDF format. You can also view your improvements throughout the season with the click of a button here! Individual times are available from the volunteer race timers immediately following each event or on the results sheets posted at our club following the meet.
Remember, you can sometimes win without swimming fast but you can never improve your times without swimming your fastest.
Equipment and Terminology
| DQ | Disqualification: A term used to indicate when a swimmer has been disqualified from a particular event due to improper technique. Turn-and-stroke judges assigned to work each meet make DQ calls based on improper stroke or turn technique (varies by stroke). Midlakes rules are based largely on the rules of U.S.S. Swimming. |
| Heat | A division of an event in which there are too many swimmers to compete at one time. |
| Team Suits | Team suits are made of a nylon/lycra blend material and should fit snuggly on the child. These higher quality suits are meant to form to the swimmer's body and minimize resistance. Warning: Too much sitting on rough surfaces and too much Jacuzzi time can cause premature wear. Supplied by parents/swimmers but orders coordinated by the team. |
| Swim Caps | Used to streamline the head and keep hair out of the swimmers eyes and mouth. Swim caps are required for girls as well as boys with long hair. To maintain a cap keep dry when not using and occasionally powder with baby powder. Team supplies one team logo cap to each swimmer. |
| Goggles | Goggles should be properly fitted. Smaller swimmers may need a child size. Higher prices do not necessarily equate to higher quality. Supplied by parents/swimmers. |
| Individual Medley | An individual event where the participant swims four strokes in the following order: Fly, Back, Breast and Free. |
| Medley Relay | A four swimmer relay in which each swimmer swims a different stroke in the following order: Back, Breast, Fly and Free. |
| Kickboards | These tomb stone shaped objects, made from foam rubber, support a swimmer's upper body while practicing kicks. Supplied by the team. |
| Pull Buoys | These small floats, made from foam rubber, support a swimmer's legs while practicing stroke exercises. Supplied by the team. |
| Special Relay Rule | Swimmers who participate in the Division Championships ('B' Champs) are eligible to swim in one League Championship ('A' Champs) relay. This is done in order to encourage greater participation in the relay events. Our team frequently takes advantage of this special rule.
