AHSTC Special Notice 7/23/26

SPECIAL NOTICE

Dear members,

We have a few critical, last minute, schedule changes that we would like to share with you so that you can plan your trip to AHSTC accordingly. We apologize in advance for any inconvenience this may cause your family and guests. The following changes will not affect Open Swim or after hours/Teams parties as scheduled on the calendar. If you have any questions or concerns please direct them to [email protected] and our Coordinator Jennee will connect with you.

___________________________________________________________________________

UsTA Matches

July 24th | 7:30pm-9:30pm Courts 1, 2, and 3 closed for matches

Youth Member Tennis Invitational

Friday July 24th | 8:00am-5:30pm courts closed for matches

Saturday July 25th | 8:00am-4:00pm courts closed for matches

Due to unforeseen circumstances, the Kent club is no longer able to host the postseason tournament. Rather than cancel an event that so many of our young players have worked hard toward all season, we made the decision to host it here at Arbor Heights. We’re excited to celebrate our youth tennis community and appreciate your support as we welcome players for this special event.

We also wanted to share that Saturday marks the conclusion of our Youth Tennis Team season, which had a record-breaking 200 participants this summer. As the season wraps up, members will notice significantly more court availability.

To make it even easier to find open courts, we will begin highlighting Open Tennis on the club calendar, similar to how we display Open Swim times, so members can quickly see when courts are available.

Thank you for your patience and support as we continue to grow tennis at Arbor Heights while balancing quality programming with ample opportunities for members to enjoy the courts.

We look forward to seeing many of you out at the club this weekend cheering on our young players!

Cheers,

AHSTC

AH Dive – All City Championship Meet – Qualifiers and Meet Details

/in /by

Congratulations to all of our dive team members on another successful summer season! We are so proud of how much everyone has accomplished, and we hope that everyone has had as much fun this summer as we have! A huge thank you to all of our dive families for supporting our team, bringing your divers to practice and helping out at our meets. We couldn’t do it without you all!

With our regular season now complete, we will wrap up the next week with post-season competition. Practice next week will follow the same summer schedule, and is for All City qualifiers and alternates only.

Volunteers Needed

The All City Championship meet is a big meet that lasts most of the day, with multiple volunteer shifts to choose from. Per the SSSDL bylaws, we must provide 2 scoring table volunteers and 1 judge per age group. It is welcomed and encouraged to sign up for more than one age group shift. You are also welcome to volunteer if your diver won’t be competing.

Thank you for signing up early and decreasing my stress levels – please sign up to volunteer by noon on Tuesday 7/21. Sign up to volunteer here.

ALL CITY:

Meet details:

Date: Saturday July 25

Location: Gregory Seahurst

16700 19th Ave SW, Burien, WA 98166

Start time: 9:00am (with 8:00am open warmups for all teams)

Please see this document for more meet details.

A note on timing – as with all meets, it is difficult to predict the length of each event. I’m hoping to get a timeline later this week, but it will depend on when dive sheets are entered. I would expect around 45-60 minutes per age/gender, especially for the younger age groups which tend to have more divers. As with all meets, please plan to arrive early, so your diver doesn’t miss their event. There will be a clothing vendor on site, so you can also use extra time to check out the meet merch.

Qualifications and criteria:

Qualification is based on highest total score at a dual meet. There will also be two alternates for boys and girls of each age group.

With the exception of 8U, all divers must perform an additional dive at All City, and jumps are not allowed for any age group.

IMPORTANT NOTES:

·      If your diver is listed on our sheet as a qualifier for All City but will NOT be able to attend the meet on July 25th, please reply all to this email no later than noon on Monday 7/20!

·      If your diver has qualified, please make sure their name is spelled correctly and how they would like it to appear on any apparel, dive sheets, records, etc. If their name is misspelled or they would prefer to go by a full name or nickname, please also let us know immediately.


Without further ado, congratulations to our 2026 All City Qualifiers!

Swim Team Summer Week #4

/in /by

Happy peak summer, Otter Fans!

Thanks to all swimmers who competed at our meet against Kent last night! It came down to the wire, with some very close races. Special shout out to those families who pulled a multi-sport double header last night to show up and race some events for us, and to the seniors for a event 71/72 relays – that was an amazing way to end the meet! The final score was Kent 552.5, Arb 530.5; full results are here. While we came up short, every otter who participated last night should be very proud of how they showed up, swam hard, and supported their teammates.

The upcoming week has two away meets, and we have a start and turn clinic tomorrow morning. Read on for more information.

OG TLDR: 

1) RSVP now for Tues@TL and Thurs@GS 

2) Sign Up for a Free Limited-Edition All City Tshirt  (by volunteering) 

Sat Jul 11 Start & Turn Clinic  Beginner/intermediate 8-9 am, intermediate/advanced 9-10 am. No RSVP needed, just show up.

Tues Jul 14  Away meet at Twin Lakes. Please RSVP by Sunday EOD. Arrive by 4:45 pm to be in the pool for 5:05 pm warmup. Twin Lakes has a four lane pool, making it a smaller, very friendly environment. The downside is, it’s waaaaaay down in Federal Way so leave time for I-5 traffic. Carpooling, or asking a family who is already going to take your swimmer with them, is highly recommended! Here’s more info from TL:

Parking is in front of the pool house and an adjacent lot, and in surrounding neighborhoods. ADA parking is available on request. Deck opens for setup at 4:30. Please set up on the main deck area by the locker rooms. Bleachers and benches are available for both teams. AH warm up is 5:05-5:50, meet starts at 6 pm. Parents should avoid the deck behond the blocks, and phones, filming, or pictures behind the blocks is prohibited. Snack Shack is located under the deck of the main club house, just beyond the pool house, and will include a taco bar and other assorted swim meet snacks.  

Thurs Jul 16  we are away at Gregory Seahurst. Please RSVP no later than Tues EOD. Swimmers should aim to arrive by 5:00 pm to be in the pool for 5:15 pm warmup; racing starts at 6 pm.

Apparel – All apparel orders are here and can be picked up in the cabana! If you missed out, I have a small number of hoodies and tees, plus some discounted clearance stock from 2025 available. Sizes, descriptions of available items, and the order form can be found here: Last Chance Apparel

All City – Our club is hosting the swim league championships this year. This is a big deal- we are expecting over 1,000 visitors and it is going to be an enormous party. All four tennis courts will be filled with hundreds of swimmers and their families, and we’ll turn our parking lot into a giant concessions stand. We need your help to make this event successful. If your family is available the afternoon of Tuesday Aug 4, we would love for you to participate. Sign up here: All City Volunteers. 

Let us know if you have any questions- reply all to include coaches. Go Otters!

5:30pm: Competition begins with 8U age group and continues as follows: 8U > 10U > 12U > 14U > Seniors. Starting with the 10U group, there will be a closed warm-up for each age group.the 14U and Senior groups will likely be combined into one event.

Notes about timing:
IMPORTANT: Because the pace and length of each age group’s competition will vary, we cannot tell you exactly when to arrive unless you have a diver in the 8U age group. Always plan to come earlier rather than later – It’s a great way to support the rest of the team and we would hate to have a diver miss their age group’s competition because they were late.
If you’re concerned about how the meet is running, it’s best to get in contact with another parent attending.
Looking Ahead to Next Week:
July 13 2:00-4:00pm Team Jump at SkyZone!
Don’t forget to buy tickets for our team jump at SkyZone! They are currently running a promo for buy one, get one half off (Use Code PLUSONE50) so check with friends to save on ticket prices!
We will be holding a team bonding event with our coaches at SkyZone in Tukwila (thanks for the great idea, Coach Declan)! Purchase tickets and skysocks here. Make sure to select the 2:00pm slot on July 13!
Please note skysocks are required, and each participant will need to sign a SkyZone waiver before participating.

All-City Swim Meet

We’re excited to host the All-City Swim Meet in August and welcome all of the GSSL teams to AHSTC!

To prepare for the event, the club will have adjusted hours:

  • Monday, August 3: Early Bird Swim and Swim Lessons only.

  • Tuesday, August 4: Early Bird Swim only. The club will be closed for the remainder of the day while we host the meet.

As part of our preparations, the pool temperature will be lowered during the week leading up to the meet to provide optimal racing conditions. We know many of you love our usual 84.2° water, and we’re happy to report it will return to its normal temperature on August 5.

Thank you for your patience as we host this exciting event, and we look forward to a fantastic week of racing!
