New swimmers are required to complete a swim test at the first team practice, Wednesday, June 1. Swimmers are required to swim 1 length (25 yards) of freestyle and backstroke unassisted.

Swimmers will compete in a Mock Meet on Saturday, June 4; 8:00am warm-up followed by 8:30am start. Swimmers will swim freestyle and backstroke to record a time, which determines placement on the “A” or “B” teams.
Parents are essential to making a swim meet happen. Each parent is required to volunteer for 2 dual meets in order for your swimmer to compete in a Conference Meet.
