We require USA Swimming registration for all swimmers who participate in STORM activities. 2026 registration will open in September. Swimmers who were registered last season will need to renew their registration prior to December 31, 2025. Swimmers who are joining for the first time in September 2025 will need to register with USA swimming before beginning practice.
 
Note: USA Registration has two levels, premium and flex. 
  • Swimmers over the age of 12 or who wish to participate in championship level meets should select premium registration. 
  • Swimmers 12 and under and those who do not wish to participate in championship meets may choose the flex option. 
  • Please do not select seasonal membership. This membership is intended for short-term registration and does not apply to our groups. 
See you at the pool!
