2025 Buddy Information!
It’s a time-honored tradition for our Woodland Swim Team to support and cheer on each other throughout the swim season and beyond. The WST Buddy Program is one of the ways our swimmers can get social and let their teammates know we are there for them!
A WST Buddy is more than your teammate, he/she is your person! He/she will be poolside cheering you on as you race. If you get bored in between swims, find your buddy to make downtime a bit more fun. He/she is there for you when you need some words of encouragement.
How the program works
We do our best to pair the buddies off with one of their teammates that will support, cheer, and enjoy the swim team experience. Typically, we pair buddies based on their age, personalities, and swimming needs.
Throughout the swim season, we’ll have buddy events where the swimmers are encouraged to reach out to their buddy and do something fun. Buddy events are typically at home meets and WST social events. Buddy events are designed to be fun and lighthearted way to tell your buddy “You’ve got this!”, you can pick and choose what you want to do as everything is fun, but optional!
Here's a tentative list of buddy events (may be subjected to change).
