1. What is expected from our children during practice and or competitions?
We have a few universal things we expect from our swimmers. We expect them to demonstrate respectful behavior towards other swimmers and the coaches at all times via their listening skills, tone of voice and the language they use. We also expect all swimmers to respect the pool and equipment.
2. How may times would we like to see your children at practice?
As a team we do not mandate any number of practices. However we do recommended at least 2-3 practices a week for all ages.
3. When registering what group should I place my child in?
When registering your swimmer for the upcoming swim season, it can be confusing will the different groups. Here is a guide on what groups a child should be in depending on age and ability.
