The summer team is the most grass roots introductory level to competitive swimming and is a great way for children to be introduced to the sport. Here at the Y, we have swimmers of all levels from first time swim team members through Y National caliber competitors. We offer a full range of ‘groups’ within the team so that swimmers can get the level of training they need.

Some quick Answers to common questions:
• Practices start after school the day after Memorial Day.
• The season concludes with a championship meet at the end of July.
• Swimmers compete in home and away swim meets usually on Monday and Thursday evenings.
• Away swim meets are usually about an hour away. Swimmers are expected to make it to most away meets.
• While swimmers are strongly encouraged to attend as many practices and meets as they can, there is no strict attendance requirement. While many ‘swimmer families’ may gear their vacations to August, we understand that’s not always realistic. Summer vacations are the norm.
• Practices have multiple coaches and are geared toward your swimmer’s needs.
• After school lets out, we have use of an area outdoor pool for most morning practices. Specifics will be announced once they are worked out.
• Evening practices are also offered for those who can’t make it in the mornings.
