Swim Team News
Swim Team Kick-off April 11 at Paddock Road Elementary School Library from 5:30pm – 7:00pm
COACH NOTES
Please remember, swim team is competitive. Swim team is NOT a replacement for swim lessons. Children under age 10 and younger MUST be able to swim 25 meters (one length) of the pool UNASSISTED, WITHOUT STOPPING and WITHOUT GRABBING THE LANE ROPE. Children age 11 and older MUST be able to swim 50 meters (one full lap) UNASSISTED, WITHOUT STOPPING and WITHOUT GRABBING THE LANE ROPE. Swim team coaches will work with swimmers to be competitive (improve breathing techniques, stroke refinement, turns if applicable, etc.). They will not teach your child how to swim.
