4 weeks till Conference!
Hi Riptide Families,
It’s hard to believe, but the biggest meet of our season is right around the corner — the Northland Swim Conference Championship Meet! This is our end-of-season championship where swimmers from all conference teams come together to compete at a high-energy, fast-paced, and incredibly fun three-day meet.
🏊What Is Conference?
This meet is what many swimmers train all season for — a chance to compete against the top swimmers in the league, go for personal bests, and even chase team or conference records. The atmosphere is electric, the pool is fast, and swimmers tend to drop time like crazy thanks to the excitement and great conditions.
The goal is for every swimmer who qualifies to attend. And even if your swimmer doesn’t qualify this year, they are encouraged to come cheer — it’s a fantastic way to build motivation for future seasons!

If your swimmer hasn’t qualified or hasn’t swum in three meets yet — no worries! We still have three more dual meets left in the season, and plenty of chances to qualify and meet the requirement.
🎀 This Year’s Theme: PINK OUT!
We’ll be showing up in all pink, every day to bring the spirit and the power to finals!
If your swimmer doesn’t qualify this year, we still encourage them to attend and cheer on their teammates. It’s a great way to experience the excitement of the meet and stay motivated for seasons to come.
As always, let us know if you have any questions. We can’t wait to wrap up the season with a fantastic Conference meet!
Go Riptides!
