DELIVERY OF SPIRIT PACK ITEMS
Swimworks is close to getting me all of your spirit pack items, I am aiming for delivery during the first two weeks of February.
SWIMWORKS
Please make sure that you have everything you need for practice. Have a swim suit (appropriate for competitive swimming), cap, goggles and your own equipment. If you need to purchase any items, please go to our team outfitter Swimworks, tell them you swim for Saugus High School, and you will get a 20% discount. TIP: I highly suggest purchasing a suit that is made of 80% or more polyester. These suits will last all season and a lot longer than a regular lycra suit.

2012 SWIM ROSTER
Coach Vicky has completed tryouts and the 2012 JV and Varsity rosters have been announced. A complete listing is shown on the “Rosters” link in this web site.
Coach Vicky wants all swimmers to get in the water starting right now. SHS Swim Team promises to be very strong this year, so the earlier you start training, the better your results will be in the spring. Your options are to join one of the City programs—stroke classes, lap swim, masters—or join the Canyons Aquatic Club.
The SHS Swim Team finished on a high note last year with 15 swimmers qualifying for League Finals, 6 qualifying for CIF, 3 competing in the CIF Finals and the Girls Team was ranked #8 in the region by the LA Daily News. Also 1 relay and 4 individual school records were set during competition in 2011. The 2012 SHS swim team promises to be stronger than last year with the potential to compete at all levels in 2012.
