3. Members can also attend swim meets depending on their USASwimming membership. Premium members get access to all meets ($91/year) while flex members can attend up to 2 meets per year ($30/year, no championship meets allowed and this option is only available for 12 and under swimmers). 

Registration for all groups will open September 3rd, 2025.  Please read our available practice schedule here.  All practices will be held at the Kittitas Valley Memorial Pool. 

There are two steps to complete for registration.  Both steps must be completed before the member is allowed to practice.

 

Step 1:  Follow the "Click here to Register" link at the bottom of this page to complete the necessary agreements with EAST.  This process is completed through our Team Unify website.  Members will add/update their contact information, billing information for monthly dues, and electronically sign required membership agreements.  Monthly due amounts are based on the assigned training group for each swimmer and are auto billed on the first of each month.

 

Step 2:  On the last page of the Step 1 process, you will receive a link to complete registration with USA Swimming.  This link is specific to our program, please do not go directly to USA Swimming to complete registration but rather follow the link given to you through our registration process. If you are a new member, you will need to create a new USA Swimming account and then add your child as a new member. This step is not completed until after you pay USA Swimming the membership fee. If you need assistance with this link, contact the Head Coach at [email protected]

 

Please Note: If you are currently registered with USA Swimming for 2025, you are not required to renew your membership until December 31st, 2025. You will have from September 1st, 2025 - December 31st, 2025 to renew membership. If USAS membership has not been renewed, you will not be allowed to swim starting January 1, 2026 until you update membership accordingly. We encourage you to register early to avoid any issues when trying to register for a swim meet.

 

USA Swimming/USMS Registration is a requirement for all swimmers and coaches to be on deck or in the water.  USA Swimming registration is valid for one year from time of renewal/registration through December of the following year. These fees are required for all swimmers in order to swim with EAST and are non-refundable. 

 

There are two types of USA-S memberships available for EAST swimmers:

  1. Premium Athlete ($91):  this is a full membership which includes all swim meets, including championship meets.  This level of membership is required for all Gold, Silver, and swimmers 13 and over.  We recommend this level for Bronze members.

  2. Flex Athlete ($30):  This option is available for members 12 and under only.  We recommend this level of membership for our Precomp members.  Bronze members who know they will attend 2 or less swim meets and who are 12 and under may select this option.

**Masters participants (adults swimming with us in the mornings) will need to follow the link to USMS registration ($70), not the USA Swimming registration.

USMS renewals for 2026 do not open until November 1st.

 

All New and Returning Swimmers Must:

  • Be registered for the 2025-26 season BEFORE the first practice of the 2025-26 swim year.

  • Parents must sign, date, and return the membership agreement BEFORE their swimmers are allowed in the water 

  • First month’s dues and 2025-26 USA-S registration fee (if not current) must be paid in full to be allowed in the water to practice.

  • Your account balance from the 2024-25 season must be paid in full to be allowed to practice.  

  • Swimmers who are 18 years of age or older must have proof of completion of Athlete Protection Training prior to attending their first practice of 2025-26
