Practice Information (2026 Season)
Attendance varies by family, and swimmers may attend anywhere from a few days a week to nearly all practices. We ask that swimmers make every effort to attend at least one practice per week when possible.
After-school practices run from April 20 – May 22, 2026.
Morning practices run from May 26 – June 12, 2026.
2027 practice dates will be posted prior to the start of the 2027 season.

Practice Groups
Practice groups are based on your swimmer’s current school grade, which you select during registration:
- 6 & Under — Pre-K and Kindergarten
- 7/8s — 1st and 2nd grade
- 9/10s — 3rd and 4th grade
- 11 & Over — 5th grade and up
Grade-based groups keep kids practicing with their classmates — being with friends is a big part of what makes the team fun — and we don’t move swimmers up or down based on skill level. We reserve the right to adjust practice group placements based on overall group sizes. If you’d prefer your swimmer practice with their age group instead, contact us to discuss. No practice group changes are made before the season starts; after the first week, the coach may allow changes depending on registration numbers.
At swim meets, every swimmer competes in their official age group, based on their age as of May 1.
Equipment Notes
- The team suit is required for meets but not for practices (though it's durable enough for practice if swimmers choose to wear it).
- Tech suits are not allowed at all — not at practices or meets — per league rules.
- Swim caps are optional, but long hair should be securely tied back or tucked under a cap. If wearing a cap, please avoid other club team logos — any plain cap is fine.
