Buddy Program

    Buddy Groups – For 2024 we’re taking a new approach to the Buddy program and putting together Buddy Groups

  • Rationale:
    • We listened to survey responses that indicated a disparity between certain buddies always attending meets and events vs. friends or siblings buddies not attending meets and events and certain swimmers feeling left out of the program which is the opposite of the intent!
    • The Buddy program is a wonderful way to get to know other swimmers outside of your age group, and for families with older swimmers we really would love for you to remind your kiddos how much the buddy program meant to them when they were new to the team and nervous about things – having an older friend cheering you on or playing cards with you between races is what rec swimming is about!
  • The Buddy Group Concept:
    • Designed to have more of a team (Group) approach rather than a one-on-one approach so if someone can’t attend a certain meet, there will most likely be other members of the Buddy Group who will be in attendance so the “Group” can still hang out together and support each other
    • The emphasis is on team building and comraderie and not gifts of monetary value
    • We’ll have swimmers from various age groups to spread the wealth and we’ll try to include only 1 new family within a buddy family so the new family can ask the more tenured families for any WST information they might be new to or have questions on
  • YOU WILL NEED TO REGISTER FOR THE BUDDY PROGRAM AS A PART OF YOUR 2024 SWIM TEAM REGISTRATION – this will help the Events Team put together the Buddy Groups early on so everyone can get to know each other early in the season
  • The Buddy Group Program will kick off with a fun Buddy Olympics and WST Kick off Mix and Mingle on May 3rd!
