The Torpedo is in the Water!

Our first few practices have gone very well, and all Torpedo swimmers, whether new or veteran, have come with a great can-do attitude! We're off to a great start, and the swimmers are showing great improvement and determination after just two practices!

As this weekend is Memorial Day, there will be no practices held this Monday. This should give everyone a chance to spend time reflecting on this holiday and its meaning.

Also, be on the lookout for the bulletin board to go up in the Aquatic Center this week. There will be a detailed calendar for the entire season available there.

The Torpedo is HERE!

Good morning everyone! Pending weather, the first practice of the Valdese Torpedo Swim Team will be held this afternoon! Please remember to bring your registration forms and money for your registration fees!

Times for the differing Age Groups are as follows:

13-14, 15-18: 5:00-6:00

8 &U, 9-10, 11-12: 6:00-6:45

Should we not have practice due to weather, the staff at the pool should know by 4:30pm at the earliest. Please call to check on practice status before coming: (828) 879-2144

The Bubble is Coming Off!

Good news everyone! The Bubble is coming off! This means the Valdese Torpedo kicks off the season in LESS THAN A WEEK!

Please share information with family, friends, relatives, and anyone else you know that may be interested in taking part this summer!

We will start practicing on Monday, May 24th!

Come Out to Valdese Elementary Friday!

Members of the coaching staff will be at the Valdese Elementary Spring Carnival this Friday. Coach Andersen will even be making a visit to the dunking booth. We hope to see everyone there!

Remember, the bubble comes down next week, and then the season starts! Be sure to get your registration forms from the pool and your swimsuits ready for May 24th!

The Video is Here!

Be on the lookout for the video in your schools!

Registration Forms Available!

Registration Forms for the Valdese Torpedo will be available at the Jimmy C. Draughn Aquatic Center beginning this afternoon (May 6th)!

We're looking forward to a great season. Practices start on May 24th, which is the Monday after the bubble comes down. So if the bubble is down and the pool is open, it means the Torpedo is in the water!

Keep checking back for more information!
