The swim practice times will be split into sessions based on swimmer age/ability as follows:
Senior Swimmers – Division 4 and up or children born before May 2012 (or any swimmer who is assessed by the Coach and has the ability may be moved to this Session). These Swimmers will swim from 4:45pm to 5:45pm Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday for April 30 – August 1. Cost for the season is $475
Junior Swimmers – Division 3 and down or children born after April 2012. These Swimmers will swim from 3:45pm to 4:45pm Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday for April 30 – August 1. Cost for the season is $475
Swimmers 6 and under as of April 30, 2024 and Swimmers unable to swim a full length unaided (based on Coach assessment) – These Swimmers will swim from 3:45pm to 4:45pm Tuesday and Thursday from April 30 – Aug 1. These swimmers will swim in the Leisure Lane in the Leisure Pool. Cost for the season is $225
From July 2 until Aug 1 additional morning swim practices will be added 2 days per week for Junior and Senior Swimmers. Also during this period on the 2 mornings that we do not swim there will be dryland training for all Swimmers to attend.
For Swimmers that attend the Regional Swim meet and qualify for Provincials there will be practices from Aug 6 – Aug 14 in preparation for the Provincial Meet at UBC.
Children should be on deck 15 minutes early for warmup and stretching.
The Club is a non for profit society and as such each family is expected to fundraise $100 per family. The Club plans to run 2 fundraisers during the season. First will be an online 50/50 draw where parents/children can share the link to the draw and have people who are purchasing tickets pick which family they are purchasing a ticket on behalf of.
Meet fees will be charged for all Meets attended (other than the home meet in Creston). This fee is $10 per meet which is due prior to attending the meet. 6 and under swimmers do not have to pay to swim at meets.
Swimmers do not have to attend every practice, although it is encouraged especially if they will be competing in the Swim Meets.
