If you would like to swim a trial week with BDST, you will still need to complete the 3 steps above and send an email to the coaches, [email protected], to schedule your trial week. You will not have to commit to a month of BDST dues until after your trial week. If you join the team, you will then pay for the month of dues during which your trial week occurred. You may also simply join the team without participating in a trial week.

BDST Registration:
To register with BDST for payment of monthly dues and to sign up for practice times, please fill out our online
registration form. Once your form has been processed, you will receive instructions for logging into your account on our website. You may also pay by check to the BDST dropbox on the DAC Pool Deck, or pay directly to the coach. Questions about registration or billing can be directed to [email protected].
You must notify the coaches by the 25th of the month prior to the month of non-participation to avoid being billed and responsible for dues.
All Masters / Adult Fitness swimmers (whether you compete or not) are required to join USMS Swimming annually. USMS is our liability insurance program. OMS will send your registration card and a monthly newsletter directly to you. You may register and pay online here (USMS) and get more information about OMS here. When you register for USMS, you will want to register with OREG as your club, and BDST as your training group.
STSC/DAC Admission:
Masters swimmers must purchase admission to the pool in addition to paying the coaching fees for practice. This can be done in the form of a pool membership or by paying each time you swim. Ask facility staff for details.
Masters Records:
A complete set of records (scy, scm, lcm) are available to view on the records page. If you set a new record it is your responsibility to send it to the coaches at [email protected]. The results are not checked and are updated on the honors system.
