Swim Team Tryout; Monday April 25th, 7:15pm Redmond Aquatic Center
This is a tryout for non-members who would like to join the team.
We will start at 7:15pm. Tryouts do not take long, and are a chance for the coaches to see if prospective swimmers are ready for swim team, and if so, which group would be the best fit for them.
Admittance into groups is as follows:
- 8 & Under Group: 8 years or younger, can swim 1 length of freestyle and backstroke
- Bronze Group: 9 or 10 years of age, can swim freestyle, backstroke and breaststroke legally
- Silver I Group: 11-13 years of age, can swim freestyle, backstroke and breaststroke legally
- Silver II Group: 10-12 years of age, can legally complete a 100 IM in less than 1:40
- Gold Group: 11-13 years of age, can legally complete a 200 IM in less than 2:45
- High School Group: 13 years or older, can complete a 100 free in less than 1:15 and has 3 legal strokes
Wave has limited space in many of the groups, and some are full. For specifics, check with Coach Erin at the tryout. Prospective swimmers must pass the requirements listed above to enroll as a member of the team.
If you do not pass the swim team requirements, Wave offers lessons at both the Juanita and Redmond aquatic centers to help get you up to speed. Swimmers are allowed to tryout again if they do not pass the first time.
