Swim Team Practice

2019 Practice Schedule: Monday thru Friday 

Afternoons until public schools close
Practice will begin on Tuesday May 28th. While public schools are still in session, practice times will be weekday afternoons.
  • 4-5pm: 10 years old and under
    (unless in Advanced Stroke & Turn)
  • 5-6pm: 11 years old and over
    (plus 9-10 year olds who are in Advanced Stroke and Turn)
  • 6-7pm: Advanced Stroke and Turn
    (by placement only)

We understand that your swimmers’ schedules are very busy during this time of year and that school dismissal times vary. We simply ask that you please bring your swimmer to practice as often as you can. The coaches will understand if your child arrives late or needs to leave early. 

For those swimmers new to the team, there will be a 2-week trial period to ensure that your swimmer is able to swim one length of the pool unassisted. This means they may not stop to rest on the wall or lane line.

No Swim or Dive Practice on Friday June 21st
Last Day of School Party instead

Morning Practice Schedule:  starting Mon June 24th
  • 8 - 9am: 11 years and over (& 9-10yr olds in Adv. S &T Clinic)
  • 9 - 10am: 10 years old and under
  • Some Monday and Wednesday evening practices will be scheduled to accommodate swimmers who must miss some mornings.  Stay tuned
  • Stroke and Turn Clinics: Advanced (9:45 - 10:45) Intermediate (10:30 - 11:30)
Stroke and Turn is an optional clinic and by placement only.  Stroke and Turn clinics practice six days per week, Mon-Sat. To learn more, click on the link above and ask if space is still available.

SIGN-IN Sheet Every Practice
We ask that team members please sign-in when they arrive at practice. Sign-in sheets will be at the Pool entrance table. Team members will not be penalized for missing practice, rather the list is helpful for coaches to know exactly who is in attendance to ensure the safety of our swimmers and divers. Please remind your child to only sign themselves in and not their friends.

Please follow this link to Sign Up Genius where you can sign up to work in 3 LSA dual swim meets:

TBD: VISIT AGAIN IN JUNE

All swim families must sign-up to work 3 swim meets. If you cannot work yourself, it is your responsibility to find a replacement.  Some families pay a sitter or neighbor to complete the assignments.  Other families cover for one another in exchange for watching younger siblings during the meets.  The important thing is that you make these arrangements ahead of time.  Most jobs are simple and can be performed by high schoolers (we do ask that timers, time recorders, score table and place judges be at least 16 years of age).
