Hey Piranhas,

Due to weather and a little miss communication we will extend the Clinic practices up till next Thursday the 7th of May. It would be unfair for the swimmers in Clinic to not have the proper chance to swim and join the team (a minimum of 3 weeks of in water practice). We hope everyone in Clinic can show up and that we have good weather for next week so that they can get the chance to swim all week long and test into the team.

The swim test to make the Team is for 10-under swimmers must complete a 25 Meters Freestyle (from one end of the pool to the other) with out the help of an instructor. They can use the lane rope to take a break and catch their breath. For 11-up swimmers it is the same test except its a 50 Meters Freestyle (from one end to the other and back) with out the help of an instructor. They too can use the lane rope to take a break if needed. All we are looking for to join the team is the willingness to jump into the pool either off the blocks or the side of the pool and swim on their own the required distance.

We will let the parents know if the swimmer makes the team and what to do next after the test into the team.

If you have any questions please feel free to ask either the Coaches or a Board Member.
