The meet doc is posted below.

It is going to be a great but crowded meet. Athletes are asked to bring a chair if they would like a place to sit.

Athletes will ride the bus to the meet. The bus departs from Micki at 6:30 AM. Please be on time as we have the first warm-up.

THis is a huge meet with over 650 athletes! As we are hosting this meet, it is our responsibility to leave the RRAC cleaner than we found it. No athletes will be dismissed from the meet until we have finished picking up.

For this meet, athletes are allowed to go home with their parents. There will be a sign-out sheet after meet pickup is complete. 

Parents - parking will be very limited, so please carpool if possible. 

Don't forget about our fundraiser for The Michael J. Fox Foundation. If you haven't had a chance to donate yet and are able, please do so today! The info is below.

Athletes, the link for lunch is closed.

“We’re bringing 1985 back to the pool deck at the Round Rock Aquatics Center. Round Rock High School (RRHS) Swim & Dive Team is proud to partner with the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research to raise support and awareness for this amazing non-profit. Grab your puffy vest and let's kick this fundraiser into overdrive!

We will once again be helping one of our feeder schools, BlueBonnet Elementary, with their annual Trunk or Treat from 5-6:30 PM. Athletes are encouraged to decorate their cars or join together to decorate a teammate's car, bring bags of candy, and help create a fun night for local students. We will also be grilling hot dogs for the kids and their families. This is a favorite event of both the team and the kids at Bluebonnet. If you need ideas about decorating your trunk or car, please just Google "Trunk or Treat Ideas"

Our District Meet is quickly approaching, and we are in need of officials. Please use the following link to sign up

https://forms.gle/c3pVXRqXZcCtquCVA

In addition, the AISD District 6A and 5A meets are on Friday, Jan 23 (following our meet) and Saturday, Jan 24 at the RRAC in the morning. They desperately need officials - both to get the meets certified and just to have a fair meet. Last year, the 5A meet was not certified, and we had so few officials that they were begging for volunteers from the parents attending. Not a great situation. The 6A situation was not ideal either. Because those schools don't have pools and don't host meets, they just don't have parents who are trained. If you are able to help out with either or both please contact Odis Jones, AISD assistant athletic director. Email odis.l.jones@austinisd.org, or you can text/call at 512-909-3324.

Friday, 1/9 @ The RRAC

Swimmers will be excused all day and should eat breakfast before arriving to the pool.

We are asking that all swimmers bring drag suits with them daily for use during practice. The suits below work for both boys and girls and are recommended, but Nike shorts or similar can also be worn. Girls are also welcome to wear an older loose suit on top of their normal one to add drag. 

Please remember that unless communication is sent out, practice will resume as normal. If the "feels like temperature" drops below 20 we will not practice, but otherwise we are hard at work as normal. The pool is heated. We are entering the last phase of our season, so swimmers must practice despite some days being cold this time of year. 

With the colder weather, we are asking for donations of packets of hot chocolate and apple cider. If you are at the store, please pick up an extra box and send it in with your swimmer. 

Thank you!

One last call for Blue Santa Toy Donations. All toys will be picked up this Thursday, and we are hoping to have all three boxes completely full! Please donate if you can, and thank you to those who have already brought in a gift. 

Congratulations to our very own Francis Pham c/o 2023. Last weekend, he won a $100k Scholarship to help him on his way through dental school. His background in swimming was instrumental in victory. 

Rock Swim and Dive will be having a holiday party on Wednesday, December 17!  Please RSVP HERE!

Also - please fill out this form so we know who wants to participate in our Secret Santa!  The big reveal will happen at the holiday party and more details will be sent this weekend to those participating.

We will be celebrating our Senior Class of 2026 with a short meet-and-potluck on Wednesday, 1/14 @ 6 PM @ the RRAC. 

For planning purposes:

No practice, Friday, 12/12

Athletes are expected to attend holiday training just as they would normal practices while school is in session. If family plans, such as travel/vacation, conflict with practice, an email from a parent is necessary.

Once again, Round Rock Swim-Dive-Polo will be helping collect toys for children in need this holiday season. We are asking that each athlete bring a toy to donate. Toys can be brought into practice. Please follow the guidelines for donation:

- New, unused toys (please do NOT wrap them)

- No food, liquids, powder, glass

- No stuffies

- Ages 0-1 and 8-10 are most needed 

Thanks for your support and help in making the holiday season a little brighter for area children. 

The 2025-26 Team Handbook is posted below. 

To facilitate the beginning of the year team meeting, please read the handbook beforehand, as it should answer many of the questions about the season and expectations for your athlete. 

After reading, please use the following Google form to indicate that both the parent and the athlete have read and understand the rules for the team. Athletes will not be able to practice until the handbook form and all physical forms have been completed. 

RRHS Swim and Dive 25-26 Handbook Acknowledgment Form

Congratulations to our 2025-26 RRHS Swim Team. The roster is posted below.

We had a huge turnout for tryouts this year, with 74 athletes competing for a spot on the team. Please keep in mind that this process is not an easy one, as many talented swimmers do not appear on the roster. 

As discussed at tryouts, if you did not make the team, please try to find some club, extracurricular, or program to get involved with at RRHS, as it will make your high school experience more enjoyable. Also, keep in mind that there have been many swimmers tryout for the team who do not make it their first year. If swimming is something that you love, then do not give up. Keep at it and come back stronger and even more determined next year. 

All schedule changes in and out of the swim period will be handled from our end, but please double-check with your counselor in late July.

We are looking forward to a great season. More info about suits, a parent meeting, and the team to come mid-July. 

Have a great rest of the summer, 

Coach Arredondo
