Attention New Families

For safety reasons, to swim on the Competitive Team your child has to be able to swim one lap of side breathing freestyle. If they cannot meet this requirement please sign up for our Junior Swim Team.

The Junior Swim Team is a very high quality lesson program. We take 4 year-olds and Up. There are 3 levels starting with non swimmers. When they graduate from the 3rd level they move onto the Competitive Team. The groups are 2-4 kids so they get lots of attention. If you start on the Junior Team and graduate onto the Competitive Team the dues will be pro-rated.

  • There will be a try out on the first day of practice. Kids that cannot meet the 25 yard side breathing requirement will be placed in the Junior Team.
  • It is best to error on the side of caution. A child put into the Junior Team and is ready to move up will feel good. A child who is placed in a group that is over their heads will often feel overwhelmed and want to quit. That first impression is very important.
  • If you are sure your child can make 25 yards of side breathing freestyle, sign up for the Competitive Team. If you have doubts start with the Junior Team by contacting Jack Naylor.
  • If you have any questions about where your child should go please contact Eric Whitten, Head Coach, at 342-5163 or cmerun@aol.com

Please contact Jack Naylor at 847-0540 to sign up for the Junior Swim Team.
