TRYOUTS

• Trying out is a chance for our coaches to assess your prospective swimmer's skills and determine which group would be best suited for your child(ren).  They should be able to float and not be afraid to put their face in the water.
  ​
• If your swimmer is transferring teams, a tryout is still necessary to gauge which group best fits. Your swimmer may try out for more than one group to ensure the best placement. In general, if a swimmer meets partial requirements for groups, we will start in the lower group with a chance to move up quickly. We want your swimmer to be comfortable and adequately challenged.
  ​
• Athlete placement into a group is based on their ability, not their age. Although age is taken into consideration, the coaches are the only ones qualified to make group determinations.

• Swimmers should bring a towel, a pair of goggles, a swimsuit, and plenty of smiles!
