Our Little Otter Program is for swimmers ages 4-5 years old who are not capable of swimming one length of a 25-yard pool. It is also open to 6 year olds that joined the team but were not quite ready for the team. Exceptions can be made at the discretion of the Head Coach. Swimmer's age is determined by how old they are on June 15.

The coaches of the Little Otters are the swim team coaches and experienced 15-18 year old swimmers. The ratio of coach to swimmers is about 5 to 1. The coaches and assistants are in the water with the swimmers and provide hands on instruction to each of the Little Otter participants.  Little Otter swimmers must be willing to participate in a group lesson atmosphere without the aid of a parent. 

The Little Otter program runs for 6 weeks. Please refer to the practice schedule for details about practice times and days off. Little Otters who can successfully complete one 25-yard lap may be invited to participate in a swim meet. Little Otters are not required to participate in fund-raising, and they each receive a team t-shirt to wear for the team photo.
