IMPORTANT Meet Information vs. Apex Breakers
Apex Breakers Meet Information
July 1st, 2014 @ 6 p.m.
July 1st, 2014 @ 6 p.m.
This week we swim the Sea Dragons at the Lila Jones Swim Club (Apex Breakers pool) (address and directions below). The Apex Breakers have approximately 222 swimmers. They are ranked 9th, Division 3 in the league (Scotts Mill is ranked 6th, division 2), and their record is 1-1. The Apex Breakers pool has 6 lanes.
Meet format: Apex Breakers do NOT swim their 6 & Under age group first - they follow traditional meet format. Therefore, we will be swimming our 6 & Under age group in normal sequence and rotation with the other age groups. They have a large team so they will usually allow "dive-overs" to keep the meet running smoothly.
All swimmers need to be at the pool by 5 pm, with sunscreen already applied.
The meet will start promptly at 6 pm. Please keep your swimmers in the dragon lair during the meet so that the kid pushers can find them.
Swimmers should wear their team suits and team caps. If you do not a have a Sea Dragon cap, wear no cap or a PLAIN cap (i.e. no other team names -- year-round team or high school -- on your cap).
Parents and spectators need to bring folding chairs. Due to limited space, no chairs are allowed in the dragon lair, except for parent volunteers.
Please allow our kid pushers and clerk of course crew to line up and seat your swimmers for their races. Do not walk your swimmer to the chairs behind the blocks as this confuses things and causes congestion.
Also remind your swimmers that it is good swimming etiquette to stay in the pool after a race until all the swimmers in the heat are finished. And handshakes and high-fives for the swimmers in the adjacent lanes are also way cool.
There will be a parent/coaches relay if time allows that will take place after the breast stroke, weather permitting. Please let Heather Retammel know if you are interested.
Visitor Seating
We have a visitors section reserved for the Sea Dragons. As you walk into the pool area, this section will be located at the far side of the pool deck.

Sign up for Cary City Meet...
 |
| Cary City Meet Medalist 2005 |
Do you recognize these Sea Dragons? These boys had a ball at their first Cary City Meet a long time ago. They also got a taste of what it is like to have a winning relay team at a big Championship meet. ( they were not even year-round swimmers at the time)
Would you like to be part of a winning team and swim in a championship meet ?
Our 2014 Sea Dragons are positioned to do very well at this year's Championship meet, but it takes a whole team to succeed! These four boys did not medal all by themselves!
The Cary City Meet Invitational is held every year and is open to all TSA teams. This year it will be held Saturday, July 19th. It is an all day event but is broken up into a morning (10 & unders) and afternoon session (11 & ups). We would love to take our WHOLE team to this event! As a whole team we could score very well, and have a LOT of fun! Unlike our Tuesday meets, there is NO main events, the Top 16 fastest times score points for the team! So each individual swimmer has the potential to score for the Sea Dragons.
Please join the fun and bring the Spirit of the Sea Dragons back to the Cary City Meet! Click here to SIGN UP. This is a Sign UP sheet unlike our normal sign OUT sheet.
Let's bring a large team to the Cary City Invitational and enjoy some fast swimming and lots of fun!
Sign up TODAY. DEADLINE for entries is Monday July7th.
WOW!!!
It was a ferocious battle last night between the Sea Dragons! Our Scotts Mill Sea Dragons, swam their fastest until the bitter end, fighting for ever point!
Unfortunately the outcome of the score has not been finalized! The officials have not signed the score sheets as of yet, because of a disqualification discrepency.
Please stay tuned and we will update you as soon we receive the official news. Our TSA official Carol Medins, worked very hard last night to keep the meet competitive, fair, and running smoothly. She is working hard, now after the meet, to ensure that we get the correct scoring results too.
Thank you to all of the amazing coaches who cheered and kept our swimmers swimming fast until the end. Thank you to our phenomenal volunteers who got the kids to their correct places for all of the races, the place judges and stroke and turn judges, who called the meet fairly, and the large vast of parents who behind the scenes, kept the meet running smoothly.
Stay tuned for the official score!
