Hi Shark Families,
Welcome new and returning families! Only 42 days till the start of pre-season and we can’t wait!
Lots of exciting things are in store for the Sharks this season! I’m happy to announce our new timing system has arrived and is ready to go! You may have noticed we are using a new swim software called Commit Swimming. This will be our technology platform for registration, swim meet, and volunteer sign-ups. Sign-ups for swim clinics, special events, and away meet buses will be available via the BAC Member portal or App.
While this was a rough weekend for the Spartans and Wolverines, Coach Paul’s Cranbrook High School Boys Swim Team recently won their THIRD State Championship in a row! Check out this article about Coach Paul’s win! Congrats Paul!
