Practices begin the end of September, finishes early February. See Calendar for practice reference. Practices are NOT mandatory and we do understand that school life is hectic, however swimming and diving are sports that require consistency in the water.
Note: We are asking that all those athletes that are registered for the 2025-2026 SAL season to please participate in the SAL meets to continue our high level of success. Space is at a premium for those that will be competing. You must make at least 40% (2/5) of the dual meets in order to qualify for the end of season championships!

What is USA Swimming:
USA swimming is an optional program geared for the athlete who really enjoys competitive swimming and wants to make an increase commitment to the sport. You must be a USA swimming member to participate in USA meets. USA meets have become very popular and close quickly. This is why SAC is opening up our registration 2 months earlier this year.
SAC competes in the Middle Atlantic Region. Here is a link to Middle Atlantic Swimming
