BSC PROCESS FOR NEW SWIMMERS – STEP BY STEP
All new swimmers must first be evaluated by one of our coaches. At this evaluation, your swimmer will be placed into the appropriate swim group. New swimmers include anyone who has never been a member of BSC or has not swam for one year or more.
At Evaluations:
- Your swimmer will be placed into a swim group for your “2-week Trial Period”
- Return the BSC Temporary Contact & Liability Form before your first practice (click hyperlink to find form)
- If you decide to join the team, all registration and account setup can be done online.
After evaluations:
- During the Trial Period, and prior to Registration, you should read all of the BSC Policies on the Brookings Swim Club website www.brookingsswimclub.com (under “About BSC: Club Policies”). These include documents in the REGISTRATION section of the Handbook: Terms and Conditions, Behavior Management, Bullying Policy, Electronic Communication Policy, Reporting of Misconduct, Codes of Conduct, and Scholarship Information (if applicable). These are part of the online registration process and you will be asked to verify you have read and agree to club policies and procedures.
- Attend a New Family Parent Orientation by the Head Coach and Board Member(s) during the second week of evaluations.
- The practice schedules and meet schedules can be found online once you are a registered member of the team (a Coach or Board Member will be happy to share those with you during the Trial Period if you'd like them).
