Outrigger Practice Information
Wednesday practice is scheduled for 5:30. Arrive between 5:30-5:45 PM. Plan to be on the water no later than 6:00 PM.
Sunday practice is scheduled for 7:30 AM. Arrive between 7:15-7:30 AM. Plan to be on the water no later than 7:45.
Contact me if you are unable to attend practice. If I do not hear from you I will assume that you are coming. Please notify me by email at frosso@cox.net. Call me at 235-3851 if you notification is after noon on Wednesday or after 5 PM on Saturday for Sunday practice.
Practice is always ON unless you hear from me. I will call if it is canceled during the day on Wednesday or if it is canceled after Friday noon for a Sunday practice. All other times I will send an email notifying you of the cancellation.
If we have 8 paddlers or less we will only use one boat. When the water warms we will have some OC-1s available but until then be prepared to spend some time on the beach doing alternative exercises. With 9 or more we will paddle both boats.
If you have a serious issue with the team or practice please talk to me after practice or call me. Please do not email me. Emails are easily misunderstood and voice communication provides opportunity for immediate feedback and clarification.
Please remember that there are things we can control and things we can't control with team sports. Things we can't control include: weather, traffic, tides, work and our teammates. Things we can control include our attitude, our personal fitness level, and our timing and technique. Good teamwork comes from working on the things we can control.
