Beach Club Swim Team

Swim Team Schedule – 2024

 
Following Summer Aquatics League rules, swim team participation is open to all club members who are 18 or under during the summer swim season. Swim team members must be able to swim one length independently, be comfortable in deep water and be willing to learn basic headfirst entries. For entry into the end of the season championship meet the swimmer must have swum in at least one regular season meet.  The meet schedule will be published after the SAL annual meeting at the end of May.
 
Please note that all completed forms, signed waivers, and payment must be received before swimmers can participate.
The cost for the swim team is $200 for the season and the *Junior Pre Team and *Seniors rate is $100 for the season. The first day of practice will be on Monday, June 17th and summer swim team practice will conclude with the SLA D2 championship meet at Cedarland the second weekend in August.  Please have all swim team paperwork and payment submitted by Friday, June 14th. Please drop off a check or pay directly on the website with a comment “swim team”. No child will be able to participate until these requirements are met.

*The Junior Pre Team is available to swimmers who would like to participate in the swim team and meets but still need more focused individual swim instruction. Junior Team practices will take place during swim lessons. Senior Team is for those members who are rising juniors or seniors. Many of these members have summer jobs or other responsibilities and are unable to attend daily practice but would still like to be part of the team. Senior Team members are welcome to attend swim practice when their schedule allows. If a Senior Team member is at the Beach Club during normal practice time, it is expected that they participate. In addition, they are encouraged to participate in all swim meets.

The lap lane is open for membership use at all times except during Swim Team practice. If you have a question about lap lane use, please speak to a lifeguard or the manager on duty.
 
The Committee also wants to remind members that it is the policy of the Beach Club that any child under the age of twelve must be accompanied on the deck by a parent or designated adult at all times, this includes during the swim team practice.
