Team Guidelines

• Train and race in the current blueseventy racing gear. We want all our members to represent the team in their athletic endeavors. We understand that some of our members will have ties to other teams and clubs, but we still want our members to represent the team as much as possible. We will verify that each member makes an initial purchase from the 2020 team store before being granted official acceptance onto the team. We will have all types of team gear available, and it is up to each member to determine how they will represent the team in their training and racing. 
• Come to a team event in 2020. We strongly encourage our members to come to a team race and/or the weekend gathering with blueseventy. All 2020 team events will be officially announced after our roster is set.
• Promote blueseventy. As team members, it’s expected that you act as an expert on the brand. We expect our 2020 members to help with marketing efforts through social media posts and/or through interactions with your peers during training and racing.
• Make sure to like/follow all blueseventy accounts. Engage with blueseventy, post pictures, and make sure to use the hashtags #allfortheswim, #swimmingfaster and #blueseventyracing.
• Use the team website and team mobile app to stay updated and connected with other team members. Members should create a profile, keep your race schedule current, log race results, write race recaps, etc. The more our athletes share and engage with each other, the better we can promote everyone and brag when they do well.
• Refrain from publicly promoting any products from conflicting swim companies. This is an exclusive swim partnership with blueseventy.
• Be Respectful. Athletes chosen for blueseventy racing are brand ambassadors and need to behave accordingly. Any action that may negatively affect the integrity of the blueseventy brand (i.e. doping) is cause for termination from the team.
