  • First practice will be August 5th.  We look forward to your first practice and will help your athlete(s) to feel at home.  If you haven not had a try out first, we will assess your athlete.  We may choose to move them to the most appropriate group and we may also recommend swim lessons, if we feel they are not yet ready for their group.  We want them to be prepared for a fun and successful swim journey.
