Message About Season:
Welcome to the opening season of OA Swim and Dive for 2023-2024. Here are the specifics and what to know:
Practice starts the Monday after Thanksgiving and runs through the end of February, Monday through Friday. The pool for swim practices will be at Massasoit Community College in Brockton for the 2024-2025 season. The practice time is 4:30 - 6:00 pm, meet on pool deck at 4:15. We will have a debrief team meeting after practice.
Parents must be at school at arrival time for pick-up. It’s cold, they are tired, and sitting outside with wet heads is asking for an illness. There is only one excused absence permitted where both coaches are notified prior to practice. If you are sick, do not come to practice but you must notify coaches beforehand. If school is canceled, swim practice/swim meet is also canceled (this includes if the pool/facility is also closed).
The meet schedule will be up and posted when it's completed.
Here is what to bring to school every day, be prepared!
