All New Swimmers

Swim team is NOT a learn-to-swim program.  Swimmers should have already taken some swim lessons and be able to swim the width of the pool unassisted. They should also feel comfortable in the deep end with minimal assistance. 

FIRST PRACTICE EVALUATION:

All 6U swimmers and those that are new to the Westglen Swim Team will need to complete an evaluation on the first practice (May 27th). They will be asked to swim the width of the pool unassisted.  If they are able to do this, they will be able to move forward as a member of the team. 

We are bringing back the Kickboarders this year in an attempt to gain confidence in the younger swimmers when jumping into the pools by themselves for the first time at meets.  They will still practice with and without a kickboard, however if they are not ready to jump into the pool at a meet the first couple of weeks, then we hope to remove this fear with the Kickboarder race before the meets start.
