Baylor Swimmers on FIRE at 2021 Southeastern Swimming Short Course Age Group Championships
NASHVILLE, TN- This past weekend (March 5-7, 2021) the Baylor Swim Club sent eleven athletes to compete in the 2021 Southeastern Swimming Short Course Age Group Championships at Ensworth School in Nashville, TN. The meet featured many of the top 14 & Under swimmers from the state of Tennessee.
Leading the way for the Baylor Swim Club were some big-time performances from four-teen-year-old Luke Waldrep. He took the Southeastern Swimming Age Group Championship posting a time of 49.24 in the 13-14 boys 100-yard-freestyle. Waldrep also claimed 2nd in the 200-yard freestyle, 3rd in the 500-yard freestyle, and 3rd in the 200-yard IM. With a total of 96.5 points, he was named the individual high point runner-up for the 13-14 boys age group. In the process, Waldrep also broke Baylor Middle School records in the 100, 200, and 500-yard freestyle events.

News from the Club Office
Parents,
I just want to review some billing items with you. The TeamUnify system will bill accounts to you on the 1st of every month. The statements will contain your monthly dues and any other charges such as caps meet fees hospitality fees, etc. and a late fee will be assessed on the 21st of each month. Any payments that are unable to be processed on the 1st will accrue processing fees in addition to the charges. This fee comes from our processing merchant. Any accounts that are 30 days past due will result in your child being held out of the water.
All groups including Developmental are monthly groups. The USA and Club registration fees are yearly charges and will not be charged again until August of 2021.
Through TeamUnify you will automatically be billed for the next month unless you have emailed the club by the 5th day of the month preceding the next session. So if you do not want to participate in November you must email the club no later than October 5th. Telling your coach that you are not doing the next month will not keep you from being billed. Be sure to send the email to the club. Notifications must be sent to Laura Pitman. We will not allow children to practice until the online registration and COVID -19 testing have been completed.
The yearly hospitality fee of $75 is charged in November. If you join in November or later the hospitality fee is charged the month of your registration. This is the only additional fee our families are charged outside of meet fees. We do not require any fundraising. The hospitality fee is to supply food and drinks for the coaches and officials at all of our hosted meets. Some of these people are here for 3 meals and they greatly appreciate our hospitality. If you have concerns about this fee please contact me directly. Depending on the actual setup of our meets this year, this fee could be reduced or eliminated for the 2020-2021 season. We will keep you informed in that regard.
