The ‘Junior’ Stingrays program is for our 6 & Under swimmers who are already able to swim (granted, it may be a doggie paddle!), yet are not quite able to swim across an entire length of the pool without taking breaks. 

The Junior Stingray program enables our young swimmers to get much more focused attention on swimming basics during daily specific Junior Stingray practices, with a focus on improving swimming endurance and stroke technique.  Our coaches expect that everyone who enters the Junior Stingray program will be moved up into the regular Stingray team practices by the end of the season, and will be able to swim in our fun swim meets before the season ends!!

Coaches determine when swimmers are ready to ‘graduate’ to the regular Stingray program, usually based on when they are able to swim one length of the pool without breaks.  Even though Junior Stingrays won’t be able to compete in swim meets until they ‘graduate’, they are a part of the Stingray team and are encouraged to attend the swim meets to cheer on their teammates!

6 and Under evaluation date:

Swimmers that are 6 years old or younger will be evaluated by the coaches at the beginning of the season. There will be two evaluation dates.

First date is May 27th at 6:00 PM and the second date is May 28th at 6:00PM.

Your child will be asked to jump in on his/her own and swim a lap of freestyle and backstroke.
